FISH CAT 5 MAX OWNER’S MANUAL

ALWAYS WEAR A COAST GUARD APPROVED FLOTATION DEVICE 

WHEN OPERATING THE FISH CAT 5 MAX.

Know the limits of your abilities and the limits of your equipment.

Changes in air temperature and elevation may cause the air inside the Fish Cat 

5 Max to expand, which could cause a tube to burst.  Always release some air 

when these conditions occur.

Never leave your boat sitting in direct sunlight when it is out of the water.

This owner’s manual will help you with initial set-up of your new float tube, provide basic safety information and 

maintenance tips, and cover simple field repair.
