Tackle week 2017: 5 awesome new fly-fishing and fly-tying accessories

Best float tube

FISH CAT 5 MAX

When it comes to float tubes, plus-size anglers have had few options—until now. Designed and built specifically for large and tall anglers, the Fish Cat 5 Max is three inches wider and 10 inches longer than Outcast’s popular Fish Cat 4. And with an extra half-inch in the tube diameter, it can support more than 300 pounds. This rugged boat also features two vinyl bladders covered with 420-weight Pac cloth, and a PVC-coated bottom.
