Hi everyone
At the beginning of the summer I made a goal for myself to explore as many waters as possible around and in Portland (I moved to Portland in December of 2019, so I have very little knowledge of all the hot spots etc)
However, I've found some interesting spots but feel like bank fishing limits me quite a bit especially with the healthy bush and tree population on the banks of many places. I fly fish and fish on a spinning rod also. I mostly target trout, bass, and sunfish for now.
I was looking at fishing floating tubes as a good alternative to boats and kayaks financially and space wise, but have not experienced it yet. It would be my main way of fishing for casual after work going out and fishing for a few hours. My question to y'all who have experience with fishing from a float tube if it is worth it as a casual piece of equipment. Also I'd love it if you could help me with your personal pros/cons about it
