[cool][#0000ff]We all learn about "shrinkage" when we don't check our tubes and top off to the max before launching in cold water. Doesn't take much to drop the pressure and affect your float.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]You also need to adjust your rod holders so they slant slightly outwards before you launch and then pull up straight when you sit down...in a fully inflated tube.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Bummer about the fishless trip. Always a good idea to plan your trips around waters you know well or which are showing good success for others. Solitude can be nice but it is even better when you catch a few fish.[/#0000ff]
