I was at our annual Magic Valley Fiy Fishers Banquet and was blessed to have one a Super Fat Cat - LCS[cool]

2 years ago I bought a FC4 and was all excited about it untill I went out and it did not "fit". I just was not comfortable and thought that was because I had been using a "toon" for so long. I tried 3 trips with the FC4 and it just wasn't working. It felt too short and man the sides just came in I felt like a little cramped.
I was disappointed because I do have some areas up here that the toon is just too difficult to transport and get to the water without a lot of hassle, so I was hoping to have a float tube that I felt good about.
I am in the 300# range and after checking things out I discovered the FC4 was not even rated for my size. Well all that being said, I now have a float tube more my size and I am anxious to give it a test run. I will probably use my strap on pole holders and maybe even my strap on bottomline before I start with the PVC conversion.
We have had too much warm weather here as of late and SFCR has opened up considerably on the edges, so I may get the neopreems out and go skirt the edges in the next couple of weekends.
Man, He does bless us, even with toys sometimes.[fishin]
