I just received my Fish Cat 4 Deluxe from Cabela's.
Paid $274 + 19.95 for shipping
Did not open it up yet.
Miller pointed out that Cabela's has the Fish Cat 4 on sale for $99

I have intentions of upgrading to a Prowler and keeping the Fish Cat as a loaner or use it when I need to hike in to the fishing spot.

Should I return the Deluxe and get the 4 and save $174?
The foam seat isn't that bad, is it?

Thanks for your opinion

That is your call the savings is big to me, but I think most people like the inflatable seats rather than the foam seat.
The foam seats are harder to dry out after they are used, so the inflatables are a plus so I have heard.

But still $174 is $174 and that is big right now at least to me it is. Just my 2 cents what does everyone else think.

They both sound good.
I also plan to hit the dock pilings and walls for some (hopefully) monster perch using sidewinder crabs or sand crabs.
Can't wait bounce

Everyone seems very cool here
Something that I've noticed since I've become interested in float tubing is that in general, the people involved are very willing to share ideas and that there seems to be a lack of egomaniacs thinking that they know everything Suspect
It makes for a more enjoyable experience Thumbs Up
