We at JRWfishing have done it again. We've
paired up with a great company to bring you a great selection of
quality float tubes and float tube accessories. For those of you
who don't know what a float tube is, a float tube is an inflatable
single person boat that floats in the water and allows an angler the
ability to navigate their favorite body of water.
These boats come in three main styles. The
styles include: the round, the U or V, and the pontoon style. All
styles have their strong and weak points, and from the pictures
below, I'm sure you can tell the difference between the different
styles. The choice of which style to go with really has to do with
price and comfort.
Most float tubes require the user to have their
feet (if not their entire torso) to be in the water, so waders are
normally worn while using a float tube. Of course, you wouldn't
have to wear waders, but if the water is cold, you will most
certainly wish you were wearing waders. Float tubes are propelled
by wearing kick paddles on your feet, which propel you forward as
you kick your feet.
We'll be honest with you, float tubing isn't
for everyone, and takes some getting used to. Being in a float tube
(at least round or U styles) feels kind of like you might imagine
being a duck would feel like. Not only a duck, but for the first
few tries, a drunk duck. This can be enough to turn many anglers
off, and scrap the float tube idea forever. In all honesty, the
pontoon style float tubes are much more maneuverable and easy to
navigate on the water, which is probably why the cost more.
The bottom line is that float tube fishing is a
very popular and fun activity (once you get used to it) and we at
JRW can now help you with this type of watercraft. If you don't
