My days in a tube.
#3
[cool] Welcome to the board, Predator. That valve core remover is handy. I worked in a service station as a young kid, so I already knew all about those valve caps with a core remover on them. When I started float tube fishing, I permanently affixed one to a discarded valve stem, to provide a larger handle. Always had a small box of extra valve cores and caps...and two or three of those valve core tools in different pockets of my tube or vest.

Being able to quickly deflate the tube is helpful when loading up for the trip home after a day on the water...especially if it is a hot day. You shouldn't leave your tube fully inflated in a hot car or garage. It won't necessarily damage the rubber of the tube, but it can split a seam in your cover, or ruin a zipper.

Appreciate the contribution, and keep up the good work as moderator over on that Utah board.
