PONTOON FLOAT TUBES

A different type of float tube was created to remedy the problems of the traditional float tube, using a pair of air chambers called pontoons that sit on the water on either side of the angler resembling a pontoon boat. By having the two v-shaped pontoons make the pontoon float tube much easier to move in the water and offers much less resistance and drag compared to the traditional float tube. Sitting higher the angler can cast much easier and in cool weather he can stay warmer. Pontoon type float tubes have a higher weight capacity for gear and equipment, although the pontoon tube, with all the advantages, are heavier and are much more expensive.

In the long run, the choice you make will depended on what you can afford and what features you want.
