Hopefully someone found it for you

That sucks. Almost had that happen this year.

Always put one ice anchor in.

Saw that happen on Long Pt. Bay Erie so many times, I think they're huts ended up on the Buffalo shore line, looked like a getaway jumbo Beach Ball.
First thing they tell you in the instructions is to anchor first.
Hope you get it back Watch on market Place for someone looking for a Popup Bag

It's the first time I do ice fishing, and no experience, I did not hope to catch a fish ,just for fun and learn how to set up gears, what I learn this time is : install a anchor connecting with tent with rope before you pop up tent, and when package leaving at least one anchor for last remove.

I'd bet that losing a popup happens to most of us once, the only question is if the wind is too strong to catch up to it. Sorry to hear that yours blew away - there is always a chance that someone will find it and post it here. Hopefully your next outing will be smoother.
