I have been float tubing for over 50 years, and I have tubed both fresh water and salt in your part of the country. I can attest that there aren't many others engaged in "floatation fishing" back there. [/quote]
I am on a few other sites that are for catfishing. I have heard of one guy that uses a tube and he works canals that come off of big water. These canals are weedy and unfishable from shore. He catches BIG flatheads that have never been even touched by a human hand. When I started to post pictures of my catfishing in my pontoons we struck up a conversations about why no one there uses them. He told me that most guys just think of them as a fly fishing tool. When he saw that pictures of my catching 250 pound sturgeon it started to raise some eyebrows as to the effectiveness of these little boats. More guys are starting to see the advantage but still have doubts or desires to have a buddy on board to help them drink beer. Ron
