Best Float Tubes of 2023 "Not My List"

I found this the other day online and was wondering what you think. First I cannot disagree with the Cumberland being on the top of the list, but I believe there are a few that could still beat this Cumberland out now.
What do you think do you agree with this list and what do you think is missing that would change the list overall.

I don't have experience with all of these, but from what I've gathered based off your guys' experience the Cumberland should be on top. As far as the rest of the list goes, some of these are nearly clones of each other. The Go-Plus, Caddis Sport Pro 3k and Lazzo look to be literally identical, the White River looks like the old school sit on a piece of nylon, no seat cushion style. I'm not sure how they rank the Go-Plus and Lazzo above the Togiak or Fish Cat 4, that seems pretty suspect to me.

That said, I had a Go-Plus as my very first tube, it was good, got the job done, but I didnt care for the inflatable seat back and seat bottom. Also felt like the seat bottom was too short in length. No matter what air pressure I had in it, I felt like I was sliding forward. I sold it and picked up a Caddis Premier Plus, with a foam seat back and seat bottom. This was soooo much better than the Go-Plus. The seat bottom was longer, I never felt like I was sliding forward and I sat higher, more out of the water in it.

All this said, I miss not having a float tube and have been considering a Cumberland or a version of the Fish Cat 4.

My very 1st float tube was a brick orange colored FishCat-4 deluxe.
 I really liked, and still prefer the rugged materials that FishCat uses to tailor their float tubes, that being said …

 I ended up buying (3) three Cumberlands afterward, and I ended up selling the FishCat to my friend for his wife. The Cumberland was much more comfortable.
 I’ve always wished that Cumberland would change out some of the materials that they use when tailoring their product, but they are … what they are!
You either gotta luv them … or you don’t!
I just so happen to luv them over anything else out there on the market so far! What can I say?

Personal side note:
 I was able to land (20) twenty documented legal Halibut with photos and reports on FTFF; while on my Cumberlands, in just 6- months of fishing, before my 1st surgery on June 3, 2021.
My (2) two surgeries has temporarily knocked me off the water for a bit, but not forever!
 Please keep in mind that the float tube will never catch your fish for you … you still need to be a smart angler or else you just need to be … smarter than a fish!! Ha ha ha!!
 I really enjoyed the lite weight Cumberland, and how easy it was to set up, handle and store. I also preferred the color of the Cumberland … as long as I had to look at it all day on the water, the color green is really much easier on my eyes.

If I were to buy another float tube, it would be a Cumberland.

Sorry for my rant fella’s!

That was just my two cents.

My twin pennies.

I don't think you can get the Lasso anymore. I have heard of the name but haven't seen one for sale.
Goplus does sell what looks to be a Cumberland clone (I wonder if the bladders are interchangeable). They may be OK but my thoughts are if you can afford a Outcast or CA, the QC may be better. That said I have considered buying one for S&G and to see if there is value to the tube. Reviews seem positive. Bonus, they are cheap so if you have issues, buy another.

I own & use the Togiak. Never had a issue with the back rest even with a PFD. I really do like this tube. You can get this tube for under $150 anywhere. I have seen it locally for $119. Not including the 8-9 years it was in storage, I have used it going on 5 years and zero issues, not even a leak.

Outcast is huge among the flyfishers, at least where I'm at. I think they should be higher on the list.

I would take the goplus & lasso and move them to the bottom.


Oops, my bad. Xproutdoor has the Cumberland clone, not goplus
