Gavin Vance –
The Rust color looks great in the field. It blends well with the surroundings and stands out just enough when needed. The float tube is durable and performs well in varying water conditions. I’ve used it on several trout streams and it’s become my go-to for early season fishing.
Neil Roberts –
I was drawn to the Rust color for its natural look. It matches the riverbanks perfectly and doesn’t look too flashy. The float tube is stable and easy to handle. A solid upgrade from the previous model.
Lisa Knox –
Fishing in a canyon area this fall, the Rust color really stood out in the right way. It’s not too bright, but it’s visible enough when the water is moving. The design feels more rugged and authentic than earlier versions.
