Finally pulled the trigger on an ODC 420 tube. Looks plenty sturdy and should float my, heavier than I'd like to be, butt around. I've been hovering around these forums for some time and have a pretty good idea about what I'd like to do as far as rod/equipment holders. I'm not sure I'd need more than 3 rods total for SoCal bass fishing and a FF to complete the core of the additions. I've seen quite a few ideas with respect to "livewells" and most seem pretty easy to make. As the weather and conditions are seeming to conspire to create a successful first outing, I need to get my fanny in gear and get some PVC and start creating.

I shall post some pics when I've got things situated on the tube. I'll try to document my trials (and inevitable errors) so that others may laugh or learn from my mistakes.

Congratulations on your new ODC420! FWIW, I bought a new ODC420 right around the first of the year. And... it's still in the box! [crazy]

But, we had -6* here this morning and it's supposed to be that cold again tonight/morning. So, I figure that I still have two or three months before open water AND water warm enough for these old bones to venture out with the tube.

Be sure to post pictures of your mods... we (ME!) will all be interested on what and how you do them! [Smile]

Very nice! Congrats !
To me, making stuff for tubing is as much fun as using it.
Crazy ? Maybe[crazy].

Cant wait to see what you come up with.
