Float tube

[TubeDude]

[cool][#0000ff]I have been tubing...and moderating on this board for quite a while. I have not done as much archiving the past two years as I did before. Getting old and lazy I guess. Rather go fishing.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]I do not know anybody who has owned an ODC 420 that has had defect problems or who did not like their craft. I have known of a few folks that have had valve problems with their FC4. If you don't get them sealed properly you will need to go back to shore, undo them, reseat them and air them back up. I have been on floatillas when someone with an FC4 had to be quickly towed to shore by a pontoon with a motor because one side of their craft suddenly developed a valve problem. Once it was reseated it worked okay but it was scary for the guy involved. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]Both fish well. The ODC has bigger pockets but they are compartmented. You can fix that with a pair of scissors. The FC4 pockets are quite a bit smaller than the Fat Cats and a little smaller than the ODC.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]ODCs are slightly larger with more floatation.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]After that it is just a matter of price, color, etc. All subjective.[/#0000ff]
