Thread: which tube ?

  1. #1

    Default which tube ?

    While I like the look of the CC ODC 420. I have not seen many that have it in stock.
    I also see the CLASSIC CUMBERLAND. Which I could have shipped to my store for $176.96.
    Anybody here use the Cumberland ? Is it as good as the 420 ?

    Cabelas has the 420 ultralight on sale
    on another forum there is a huge following for the Cumberland
    the Cumberland also has a higher weight capacity

    apples and oranges really, both are great tubes.

    I really do not want the ultralight. but the heavier 420 seems not to be in stock anyplace except at creek company themselves.
    So is the 420 regular worth $70 bucks more than the cumberland..
    If it is apples to oranges what big differences are there and will the PVC rod/net and such mods work on the cumberland.

    Not sure if one is worth more than the other, but you can build PVC rod/net holders on any float tube. It will be custom after all.

    I guess I'm wondering if the cumberland has the d-clips to mount the rod holder set-up..
    Does anybody here use the cumberland with the rod set-up and have any photos with it ?

    I think D rings are pretty much standard on all tube. The cumberland does have D rings and easy to mount PVC rod/sonar holders

    here is some pictures of the Cumberland with an assortment of mounts
    (Not my photos, I pulled from a search)

    And the sticky thread at the top of the page shows how to make a system that can be used for pretty much any tube

    Yes you can fit an ice chest or square liter box bucket. I occasionally put a 5 gallon home depot bucket on the back of mine. the square ones will fit just fine
