Float Tubes Checklist

Pontoon Style or Round Style? Pontoon style float tubes are far easier and less tiring to maneuver, as they cut though the water far easier than a round style does.Pontoon style float tubes also usually more features. While they cost somewhat more, they are worth it.
Check Weight Capacity. Float tubes all have different weight capacities. Make sure you get one that meets your weight/gear requirements.
Float Tubes and Rivers Do NOT Mix! Float tubes are designed for small lake/pond fishing. They are not designed for use in rivers...especially rivers with a fast current, or worse, with rapids. If you need a boat to fish the rivers with, get a pontoon boat...not a float tube.
Ideal Uses for Float Tubes. Fishing on lakes or ponds that require packing in a boat to reach. Float tubes also work well for small ponds where larger boats are just too much of a hassle to use. Can also be used on larger lakes on calm days near the shoreline.
