Henry,
I asked here if anyone was selling ,within 10 days I was out on the loch :z4
I was fishing with Steve Gordon yesterday and he enjoyed his maiden voyage up at Corrikinloch,so I guess he will soon be in the market!

Roll on Orkney

If ever there was a location best suited to the float tube it would have to be Orkney.  Lochs all close together, easy access (apart from the vast amount of barbed wire in the fences) and plenty troots. Well ok there's Shetland as well, and Assynt's not too bad, and Caithness is pretty good, oh and Sutherland and Islay and oh feck it i'll start again.

If ever there was a country best suited to the float tube it would be Scotland.   :z4

Couldn't have put it better myself DryFlee, :z4 :z4 :z4

Nothing like home sweet home, still reckon the country is blessed whatever others think of foreign troots(stockies) :z7.

As far as tubing goes Scotland takes some beating - except of course when I'm trying to catch them :z4.
