Reels on Wheel - Snr Fishing Cart Select Options: No Liner

Aluminum, over-size wheels, extra-long, welded very well.Would like to see a third over-size wheel as an option for soft sand and some spare pins.

A little pricy but will keep you from carrying an arm load of crap and dropping it and tripping all over it like the last time I went pier fishing in Myrtle Beech SC. There is a bucket holder for a bucket but I am going to try to make one from a piece of PVC. I think 1 1/4" diameter should do fine. Also, there is an optional liner but I'm going to try using milk crates or other such cheaper containers first. I am thing medium sized cooler, tackle box, 4 rods, a bucket as a bait container, landing net, and maybe an umbrella. Breakdown is relatively quick and easy for transport. To facilitate that I replaced the circular cotter pins that came with it with I/2 hitch pin clip (see pic) that hold the wheels in place that I got at Home Depot.

This cart isn't a bad value for the price, but there are a few things you should consider before purchasing. For starters, the fitment of the structural pieces on this cart is shameful for something that bears a "Made in USA" sticker. The cross-braces on the floor of my cart were welded in place approximately 15 degrees crooked. I'm an engineer by trade, so I know that this doesn't create any structural deficiencies per-se, but it looks awful and harkens back to shoddy workmanship. All welds are also only partial welds, and aren't "wrapped" around the edges. It remains to be see if they will develop cracks over time, but I wouldn't expect to be able to load this thing down repeatedly without problems in the future.Furthermore, the predrilled holes for the u-bolts that connect the axle to the frame were also about 15 degrees off. I actually had to redrill the holes on one side because the axle was so askew that the wheels were rubbing the frame. I plan to rig this cart to be able to be pulled with a bike and I needed the wheels to be straight. They're still not 100% straight because the location of the old bolt holes interfered with the correct location to the extent that the new holes couldn't have been drilled in the proper location without moving the whole axle assembly forward or aft a few inches.My last gripe is that the instructions were awful. I've seen Chinese-built stuff that had better instructions. Assembly is very simple, but I'd expect better instructions from something manufactured in the US.As far as neutral observations go: The plastic front wheel is usless on sand, and would probably shatter if I tried to pull it with a bike on uneven pavement, but I could tell that from the picture before I purchased it so I won't hold that against them. A better option would've been a smaller pneumatic wheel similar to the main wheels. For my application, I don't use the front wheel for transport. I carry the t-handle rest with me to put on the front of the cart to keep it level once I've reached my destination. I also did not purchase the liner, but I can see the benefit to buying or fabricating one. I plan to build a floor on my cart with marine plywood or thin cedar planks. Beach chairs, tackle bags, and the like will just slip right through the open floor without being secured with bungee cords or straps.Lastly, and almost comically, let me just say that the wheels on this thing reek terribly of an awful chemical smell. I hope this will subside over time, but even short car rides with this thing in the back will have you gagging. Just sitting on the beach downwind of this thing is an annoyance right now. This past weekend I used it at the beach and honestly it smelled worse than a rotting oystertoad carcass that was adjacent to it. I've experienced this problem with certain types of molded plastic storage boxes and the like, and usually after some time the smell goes away to an extent. I'm hoping for the same here, but for the time being it's almost unbearable.In summary, if you have the benefit of living close enough to a quality tackle shop that would sell these types of carts, you may want to check out their stock before buying one of these. I know I would've paid a bit more for going that route, but I wish I had given my money to someone who took the time to build something right. If you're handy enough to modify and re-engineer the bodgered aspects of this, it may still be a good value. I will say that the shipping was very quick!

My husband was very pleased with this. It should be able to carry anything we want to carry with us fishing or just to go to the beach. Taken apart it will fit into the back of our SUV sideways and 2 small suitcases will fit inside to make more room in the trunk.

Love my cart, , outstanding. Light weight and strong enough to put a umbrella up in a strong wind. I would buy again.

This cart is okay. It works. The current description as of the date of this review states that it comes with a cutting board/bait basket. It does not. They have replaced it with a cutting board. Not a huge deal but the photo's and description needs to be updated.As an earlier reviewer also noted, the axle u-bolt holes in the frame are not square to each other so axel/wheels on mine will not be parallel to the frame. Seems this would be core to a well engineered and produced product. I have attached a couple of overhead photos.

Nice lightweight but sturdy cart. We use it for many things not just thebeach. We haul it on the back of our RV to use around the campground as wellas taking to the beach for fun and fishing. Tires are smooth across grass,sand,gravel and shelly surfaces. Has a little work table that is easily detached. I recommend this cart.

This item ricks, wheels are balanced and we use it to bring stuff down the beach. The Seller sucks though!!!! I was missing 3 cotter pins and bogies Amazon. Heard nothing. Went to hardware store to size them up. No match. They appear to be 1/8 th. so I went with ss nut and bolts. Problem solved. I would recommend this product to anyone that has to load or drag stufff to the beach. Just beware of the seller! Missing parts.
