Float tubes

Hi all

Just wondering what do you think of float tubes? Going to be looking for something like a float tube / boat something that isn't heavy, and I could carry and last a good bit, going to be using for flyfishing for pike/trout, some deadbait casting.. I'm also fairly big fella 6'3 so it would need to hold me but I'm just looking for some ideas in what to chose I cans spend around 240 or more. I've looked at the Savage gear ones that are coming out they seem good but a bit dear! Will be fishing on small/medium lakes on calm conditions

Here's some advice from a Fly Fishing site:

Float tube advice.... Please. - Fly Fishing Forums

Cheers for that link a good read,

I might have a look at them fat cat tubes, just wondering do they have separate bladderrs incase you got a hook stuck etc?
