cooler boxes

At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Chris
I am also looking for one and have been looking at Icey-tec, Igloo and Yeti which seem to be the better makes (but pricey). However Dan just bought a 24 litre one which is electric from Argos for €49.99. It plugs into the cigeratte socket to get the refrigerator going. Great if you are travelling a couple of hours to a mark or session.
Holds Baits, Food etc even a stanley 1.5 litre flask standing up.

The 24 Litre is big enough and also strong enough to sit on as well so a bonus at this price...
