Hi yall I am interested in trying to find me a new ice chest for my boat I know I'm going fishing and as might not be the appropriate topic in the right section but a figure since there's a 1000 people on here maybe I would ask ... if you had a boat and your fishing what kind of ice chest do you recommend? I looked up 250 quart yeti cooler and it came up for a $1000 I do not have a $1000 for an ice chest is somebody know of a good quality 250 court cooler that I can throw in the back of my boat? where should I get it what kind should I get what's the best appreciate your opinion anybody 👍

I don't know either but that is a nice boat. I would assume anything but a Yeti.

You get get several of the Yeti knockoffs for about 40% less if you shop around. Grizzly, Pelican, etc. I recall seeing a 250 qt Grizzly for like $600. Other than those, you can try a standard igloo but in the hot sun you will want something with better insulation in my opinion.

Rtic is a good Yeti knockoff, works just as well as Yeti for about half the price

I'd get the Coleman 200 XP Marine Cooler from Amazon Other highly rated coolers in that size include the Pelican ProGear Elite 250

Wish RTIC made larger coolers, but their largest option on their website is 145qt. $409.99 on their website

You could look at Engel coolers. I have a small 19 qt one and it's pretty good. I'm not sure how big they go though.

All of the new style coolers in that size 250 qt. are going to be north of $750.00. Igloo and Coleman are going to be the only ones south. The Igloo Yukon is the better of the two IMO. I own both of them.

Ok hey thanks yall! Im thinking $300 max so maybe I will wait for a fire sale at academy ... I was at joe pool lake and I had a drone I took that picture. I caught some good largemouth in 14 -18 foot of water with minnows... the bite was short I got a 2 pound large mouthed with a rattle trap and nothin with the worm. Small hook with light line and minnow was catching fish. Biggest fish was on a 1/8 ounce jig topped with minnow 6 lb line:-) about 3 pound florida large mouth

Igloo makes a "yeti" style cooler. Idk what it's called or the model but I have used one when we went pier fishing, it held 40lbs of ice for 3 days.
