[#0000ff]There are some models of pontoons that provide aprons, either above or below than angler. There's no doubt that Murphy's Law afflicts fishermen, and that if there is a chance you will lose something, it will happen when there is no chance for prevention or recovery.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Having an apron is something I grew to appreciate on float tubes and I think I would miss them on a pontoon. In fact, I did away with the mesh apron on my Super Fat Cat and substituted a homemade "rigid" apron from a lid from a Rubbermaid container. Here's link to a post with a pic. You might be able to rig something similar by installing a PVC riser or else stretching a bungee cord across between the frames on either side.[/#0000ff]
