Float Tubing?

[Biglew]

Depending on what you want to do, where you want to fish, how much you want to spend, and what mama will let you get away with, there are several things to consider. A float tube is good for small still waters, and for larger ones if you want a work-out at the same time. Pontoons work for small waters, large waters, and streams, but are more expensive. They have the advantage of oars, if you want to get somewhere in a hurry. They are more stable than a float tube, keep you mostly out of the water, and can be powered, so all you have to do is steer. Most pontooners and float tubers use a flyrod and sinking line behind their craft, moving along with the fins, and stripping leech pattern flies toward them. Of course there are other flies and methods. I suggest trying to find a flyfisherman club or a good fly shop that will share information, or someone from a board like this one who's willing to share a day on the water with you. Your profile doesn't tell where you live, but there's gotta be somebody close that you could bribe with gas, food, or beer.
