Default clip wings or not

Our club is having it's first float plane fly in this coming summer and since I've had the 1/5 th Sig cub kit on the shelf i thought this would be a good candidate for my first float plane. I am trying to decide whether to clip the wings or not. i honestly don't think I will ever not fly this plane on floats. I was thinking for the lift I should go with the full scale wings but if i could gain any improved flight characteristics with the clipped wings i would go that route or does it not really matter at all.
