    NFR World Cup

    I did not see it, but Argentina also turned their backs to the Spanish players as they received their medals. What poor sportsmanship. And for having zero shots on goal, Argentina was still in it to the end.

    Float Tube Flippers

    No confusion. My bad. I have a pair of float tube fins with a rubber heel strap that needed to be buckled. I mistakenly thought that was also with my non-adjustable Force Fins. I believe the only Force Fins to have a buckle are the adjustable ones.

    Float Tube Flippers

    My issue was that I had some difficulty with buckling and cinching them down, especially in cold weather. And a bonus, is I can be sitting or standing up with the bungee...lol.

    Float Tube Flippers

    I really like my Force Fins and liked them even better after I replaced the nylon buckle heel strap with the bungee padded heel strap a few years ago. My only regret was not changing the heel strap sooner. Such a delight to put on and take off the fins now.

    High Lakes

    Hey Zak, I used my mini K-Pump to inflate my Wilderness Lite float tube. I will take a pic of it. Please note that unless you have a mini-K-Pump that has an internal check valve, it won't work with the Wilderness Lite as its valve is not a one-way valve.

    High Lakes

    I bought a Wilderness Lite Backpacker Pro float tube (weighs only 3 lbs) and got an external frame backpack for alpine lakes. The float tube is attached to the backpack with bungee cords and is partially deflated, which I learned about from @Dave Westburg. I pack my waders,booties and fins and...

    Florida Peacock bass

    I did a Google search "where to catch peacock bass in FL" and there were several locations mentioned. I would also suggest contacting the Ole Florida Fly Shop in Boca Raton (561-995-1929).
