It’s been hit and miss with this Az rain, I live in the southeast corner and fish 2 or 3 lakes mostly down here, bass bluegill and cats and trout in the winter months.

Thank you Ben. I have family over in Pheonix so momma watches the weather that way. you all been getting some rain that way quite a bit this last year..

I am checking the Colorado pontoons out also. watching the prices to figure out when is the best time to get one. So far looks like it's at it's lowest price of the year.

I’ve been using an older model Creek Co. pontoon for years and just recently picked up the Classic Accessories Colorado...just registered it with Az game and fish to use trolling motor due to the same reason..cold water cramps and ankle issues ..good luck on the water

Well after a bit of being on the sidelines, I am back and trying to be active again. My sweetheart got me a Classic Accessories Cumberland this past Christmas. So as soon as I figure a way to keep my ankle from locking up in the cold water, I'll be baptizing it...lol. Too cold and the tendons in my feet and ankles lock, no good. But the Specialist says the swimming (kicking) should help. So we will see. Will have to check mods out for the fishfinder mounts and rod mounts. Not many just one or two extras, just in case...

John, I take the bladders out for storage and keep them flat somewhere.
Comment by David, aka, "McScruff" on January 10, 2016 at 1:09pm
They really are excellent.
Because they lack distance, and I mostly fish a big BOW, I feel a little restricted.
But, I also go d the best way to overcome that is to go get in the tube somewhere, anywhere!

I've used a float tube BEFOR and actually have ha some fun time caching some quality gill and bass from them and I think there an amazing way to fish!

Hello, I bought a Cumberland last year on Amazon and one of the tie pull strings that keeps the seat back cushion net sack closed came out (wasn't attached from the factory) and has no effect on the safety of the craft whatsoever, I called Cumberland and they sent me a complete new float tube no questions asked, I just had to send them a picture of the small defect (What A Great Company) and I really like the way the Cumberland seats and fishes
