 Thanks a million you really helped me out

I fihs in a club that usues Float Tubes/ Kick Boats. We modufy the kickboats for bass fishing with rod holders, live wells, and fish finders. I use to use a float tube and finally moved up to a pontoon boat and love it. They are alot of fun to fish out of and are stable and you can go fairly far with the oar. It's easy to stay in one place and fish because all you have to do is kick your fins and you'll stay inj place. The model I have is made by Creek Company and is called the ODC816. It cost $300 from Cabelas and is a great pontton boat.

 

Oops my mistake,

I fish in a club that uses Float Tubes/Pontoon Boats only. We modify the pontoon boats with livewells, rod holders, and fish finders. I started out wiht a Float Tube and finally moved up to a Pontoon Boat. I like the Pontton Boat becuase it's stable and is low to the water. They are alot of fun to fihs out of. Another thing I like is the amount of water you can cover with the oars.
