I don't know why I've waited this long to get one, but, this month, I'm finally going to buy a float tube. (my birthday present to myself) I'm 5'7" tall, weigh 150 lbs. and fish for many different species, mostly with spinning rod/reel in the lakes of Northern Utah. I wanted to purchase a U-boat style tube, but it's been mentioned to me that they are more difficult to kick and cause you to fatigue more quickly than a traditional round tube, which continues around and gives you knee support to help you kick. Is this significant enough that I should change my mind and go with the round or stick with finding a horseshoe that suits me?
