I'd try a truck stop, or farm implement store.  Good luck.

I know you can rent them at a few places in the area Billy. Maybe they even sell them also.

Yeah rental won't work because we stay at a friends place who has a ton of tubes, canoes and about everything else you can float on, I just hate to show up empty handed. I had bought some from Tractor Supply when I got it home and took it out of the box I could wear it on my arm. Thanks though guys.

You're probably looking for a 10.00 x20"  truck tube...   most any[lace that sells or services truck tires should have them...   you want to tape up the valve stem with something though because they can be wicked...   

people also use them to tow behind boats so they're around!!!

Someplace like West Marine in Point Place or Cabella's  might have one for fishing from...   they make them with a little seat in them and everything...  but you're probably talking big bucks too ;) ;) ;)

Sounds like a fun trip ;D ;D ;D

You may not want to tell them why you want one because they may not want to sell you one for that purpose due to liability...
