Float tubes
Who's used one of these units before.
I was watching some float tube fishing videos the other night and before I knew it - I got a bit carried away with my "Buy Now" finger  Looks like theres plenty of room for innovating - and it might be fun to fish out of aswell Last edited by yellow door 1; 31-10-2016 at 01:58 AM.

Protecting the Nuts, is just one of them They do come with a "Nut Protecting Mesh Table" - When its connected correctly - the mesh suspends above your lap - But its not going to be much use on the monsters I catch

 Using them in the waters the "Goliath Hunter" is using them - is pure madness. Its like switch baiting a live fish - for your legs. I'll be doing every thing I can to avoid "that" scenario - and the scenario in the vid below At best - I'll get sucked by a carp - and at worst - the mozzies will get me while I'm deflating the tube Last edited by yellow door 1; 31-10-2016 at 03:13 AM.

And as a bonus - I've already had to make my first innovative decision - the freaking pump would fit the nozzle - so I remembered guys back in high school making good use of garden hose for life hacks. A quick squirt with a lighter - and now the hose makes an airtight seal and the pump nozzle jams right in there - too easy

They are good fun...for a while.
I had a Caddis float tube for trout fishing in a lake, some might call it a Melbourne Water Reservoir, but it looked like a lake to me Your Honour  . The annoying part is having to go backwards to move anywhere quickly, then spin around with a table-tennis bat to get into position. It's pretty frustrating and spooks fish in clear water. It doesn't sound like much of a pain, but after a while it gets very annoying, especially if there's current or wind. Make sure you've got a pair of really good wetsuit pants, because unless the water is bath temp, you'll get cold very quickly. Sorry about the negatives Larry.
