I have the same seat as the new one that he is selling and I find it very comfortable and the pad seems to maintain it's shape and remains comfortable for years. Mine is getting a little ratty after 8 years and thought of buying his new one but the logistis are an issue for me. You might want to take a look at it.

What seat do you have now? I have a COD Apex seat and it's surprisingly comfortable for a lengthy ride.

I'm leaning towards the Apex right now. I have the generic COD seat that literally has next to no foam for the seating pad.

I had the spider angler seat which was pretty nice. It had "our thickest padding" but it still got uncomfortable for me after a few hours. A Thermarest pad fixed it and easily doubled my comfort time. A pad might work for you on your current seat as it worked on my old basic seat as well. Otherwise that spider was pretty nice with a high back, two rod holders, a little bag, and attachment points.

an extra pad is my alternative idea and maybe just get newer, not so expensive seat. Which Thermarest do you suggest Alan?

This has helped me tremendously with long hours fishing! No more lower back aches. Comfortable all day.

Check out the Kingfisher seat by Feel Free. Most comfortable seat i've ever used. Andy should have them.

I wish I had known. I would have took it to Bob for you.

Which one you like? Maybe I can ship it to Bob, if the shipping charge is not an issue with you?

Maybe someone who is coming and is passing me on the way to the TG trip can pick it up.
