greeper. I've had a few different tubes and my most recent one is a Bucks Bag Top Gun. The first time I took it out I thought to my myself, dude why the heck didn't I buy this 7 years ago!!! Super super bouyant. And it has adjustable straps in the seat so you can tighten it up to the point where you are really riding high. It is heavier than the bladder type tubes because it uses a truck tire, but I have still carried a mile + on a couple occasions and it's not that bad. They are more expensive than regular tubes, but worth looking at. I would go with a round tube too, especially if you are going to be fishing ocean.
