[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]I will be getting my first tube here in a few weeks. I’m primarily interested in the ODC 420 or the Fish Cat 4. However, I’m open to any suggestions for tubes that are in the under $200 price range. If I could have caught the deal on the Fat Cat this would have been a much easier decision![/size][/font]

[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]I’ve been reading through the ODC 420 and Fish Cat 4 comparisons on this forum, but I still have a few questions.[/size][/font]
[size 3][font "Times New Roman"] [/font][/size]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]From the pics, it looks like the FC4 has D-ring attachments for the apron, and the ODC has Velcro?[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]The ODC looks to have bigger pockets? [/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Both have vinyl air cells?[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Number of air cells?[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Construction? FC4 420/600 Denier, ODC 420/ 30oz PVC bottom, how do these compare?[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Durability?[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]What are the some of the other differences?[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]I like that the ODC has a higher capacity, but I’m only at about 180lbs with gear. Durability, construction, and price will probably be the deciding factors for me.[/size][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]Thanks![/size][/font]
