Fish Cat 5 Max Float Tube

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Fish Cat 5 Max is the float tube I recommend without hesitation to anyone who spends long days on the water and wants to actually be comfortable doing it. The extra width and length make a real difference when you're working through a full day of casting, and the high-ride foam seat keeps you elevated and dry in a way that most float tubes in this category don't manage. The 12.5-inch tube diameter gives it a stable, settled feel even when you're loading it up with gear."

There is a particular kind of day on the water — an alpine lake at first light, rising fish across the flat, hours ahead with nothing pulling for attention — that deserves a float tube that keeps up. The Outcast Fish Cat 5 Max Float Tube was built for exactly those days, and specifically for the anglers who have always found standard float tube dimensions just a little too restrictive to fully settle in. At 64 inches long and 47 inches wide, with a footprint 20% larger than the Fish Cat 4, the 5 Max creates a casting platform that feels genuinely spacious rather than barely tolerable after hour three.

The construction earns its keep across everything from remote alpine lakes to large open reservoirs. A rugged 420pc / 1000 PVC shell and internal vinyl AIREcells handle the kind of rough handling that comes with real-world fishing — rocky shoreline launches, gear-heavy loading, and extended time on the water. Two 12.5-inch diameter tubes provide the buoyancy and stability that keep the ride high and dry, and the foam seat and backrest deliver the kind of firm, supportive comfort that makes a six-hour session feel like two. With a 300-pound load capacity and two independent chambers, the Fish Cat 5 Max is the float tube for anglers who are done compromising on space.
