Got my tube
#15
Congrats on your Super Fat Cat Dryrod. I got the yellow one. I didn't think about the spook factor on the fish but got that color because I want to be visible to the boaters in the bay. Luckily the bottom is black so that should help.

A friend of mine just bought the Fish Cat Deluxe with the air seats. He had a lot of problems with the seat bladder however. It developed pin holes by where the seat golds. Got it replaced and it happened again at the same spot so he finally just traded it in for the Fish Cat which has foam seat. I suspect he had something in the seat pocket that punctured the bladders but he couldn't find the source. I never had any problems with my seat bladders.

A question comes to mind, what do we use to patch the fabric seat bladder if it does develop a leak? I don't think the regular tube patches will work.

For my tube, I got a $10 hi-volume electric air mattress pump and a $5 double action hand pump from Target. The air mattress pump plugs in to cigarete lighters and fills up my Super Fat Cat in less than a minute, then I finish it off with a few strokes from the hand pump to firm it up. Look in the camping section for the electric pum and pool toy section for the hand pump at Target or Walmart. It's much cheaper to buy from a department store than a tackle shop. The qualilty is about the same.
