HEY EVERYONE FINALLY GOT THE NEW TUBE READY AND IN THE WATER. I PICKED UP THE CREEK COMPANY ODC 420 AND LET ME TELL YOU ITS 100% IMPROVEMENT OVER THE TROUT UNLIMITED TOGIAK. IT'S MUCH MORE STURDY, I SIT HIGHER, THE BACK REST IS THICK AND DOES NOT BOTHER MY BACK OR SIDES, THE BOTTOM IS MADE OF A THICK PVC MATERIAL, THE STICHING AND ZIPPERS ARE HEAVY DUTY, AND IT'S GOT A LIFE TIME WARRANTY. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THE STORAGE IS LIMITED LIKE THE TOGIAK, BUT LIKE IN THE TOGIAK I CUT THE PARTITIONS AND MADE ONE BIG COMPARTMENT. THE FOLLOWING PICTURES ARE OF THE TUBE IN THE WATER AND THE NEW ROD HOLDER I MADE FOR IT. I THINK I WENT A LITTLE OVER BOARD BUT WHAT THE HELL[
]. I DID NOT PAINT IT FOR THE PICTURES SO YOU COULD SEE HOW IT WAS PUT TOGETHER USING 1" PVC AND CONECTORS. THE BACK SECTION WITH THE CANOPY IS REMOVABLE.
UPDATE:
As requested by a few members, I attached some updated photos of the rod / tool / camera / fish finder / scent holder. I also included photos of the whole thing unmounted to the tube. I'm also attaching a few videos links that I shot from the tube. Sorry it took me a while to update this.
