Re: the call of nature while in float tube
Usually, I just paddle to shore if close in--100 yards or so. But in some lakes, where there is a long kick out or lots of wind, I just wear an adult diaper. Lake Crowley South of Mammoth Lakes CA has a long kick out into McGee Bay through tenacious weeds. It can take a half an hour to an hour to go out and then get back in. The increased fishing time and hassle reduction are well worth it. NASA uses them for astronauts because it takes them hours to get into their suits. Sort of like waders, fins, and long kicks in a float tube. If adult diapers are good enough for NASA astronauts, they are good enough for me.
