Introduced in 1940, The ArctiCreeL was invented by the founder of Colorado Tent and Awning (now part of Denver Tent), Robert Gutshall and Patented in 1951 (Patent # 2,555,128). Since then, many have copied The ArctiCreeL, but there is only one original and you have found it here!
By keeping the outside of your ArctiCreeL soaked with water at all times while it is in use it will keep your fish in excellent 'just out of water' condition. The outside covering is made of flax (linen) which absorbs and holds a great deal of moisture. The evaporation which takes place on the outside surface of the ArctiCreeL greatly reduces the temperature within the creel, keeping the fish cool and solid at all times. The material in the outside covering is the same as that which is used in the Desert Water Bags and the cooling process through evaporation which has long been appreciated in a water bag is the same. The ArctiCreeL being lined with a plastic Vinyl film which is absolutely moisture-proof keeps the fish dry at all times even though the outside surface of the creel has absorbed considerable moisture. The Vinyl film lining being non-absorbent can be readily cleaned with a minimum effort after each trip, thus ensuring a sweet fresh creel at all times!
Since its invention and introduction to the masses, The ArctiCreeL has become a necessary part of gear for both the avid and casual Angler. Functional, lightweight, and attractive, you are sure to get great use out of this product and turn heads at the same time!
