Hi everyone. This will be my first posting here. I am debating wheather I should get a kayak or a tube? I've never been on either but would like one. Which ones are better for fishing? I am debating between the fish cat 4 float tube or the advanced element firefly kayak. what are the advantages and disadvantages of each? I would really appreciate some help. thanks!

hey dude well i have the FC4 and its a awesome tube!! moves in the water well, it has a small space in the back for a small cooler or what not... you sit out of the water so only from the knees down are wet... i dont know much about yacks but id have to say you should get a toon! i bought a toon after my FC4 and i love it.. plenty of room to move around you cover water really well, plent of storage... you can fit a trolling motor on it everything.. you should check them out before you buy anything!! i have the ODC 816 and i love it, its a blast to take out and ive caught many fish on it!!

well good luck dude! hope to see ya on the water some day!

thanks dude but the wive won't let me spend much money on it :(
I am planning on buying a bass fishing boat soon thats why... but as of right now, I am leaning towards the fish cat 4. just gotta get flippers and waders and stuff..

hey man i had the same problem but no wife just bills!! :bang:

the way i see it is, you can either get a reall good float tube or a really heavy/bulky toon.

im a floater myself i love the thought of being one with the water and relaxing
im also really into yoga so that must explain it
anyway, i hope the choice you make is the right one

take care!
