Yeah Im really excited.
What do you guys do for a PFD of life vest? Do you wear it all the time when in the tube or do you just keep in in a pocket or something?

i've never use one, and never been questioned...i only care a knife, but i could assume that the insta inflatable ones would be more comfortable than the big bulky ones...if need be, you could either sit on it or drift it behind you.
ohhhh ok...thanks for clarification that it is my choice....good to know...and don't act like i didnt make an attempt to help answer his question
@ snslarison- enjoy the new ride, nothing beats getting dragged around by a big fish!
Cool. I will have to pick up a couple of those.
I use a cheapo PFD I bought from Wal Mart. Think I paid $20 for it. I also have one of the inflatable ones, but I don't use it when tubing. As mentioned before, if it's cold out the bulky type PFD's help keep you warm. It is not necessary to wear it all the times, but it has to be readily accessible. In the warmer months, I either sit on mine or keep it in the back of the tube. As for the inflatable types, they are more comfortable but I heard that they MUST be worn at all times. I'm guessing because most of them now are automatic and will inflate when exposed to water for a (short) period of time. Don't ask me how I know.
