Never fished a tube but a friend gave me a pack of tubes and now i cannot wait to apply what you teach us here, Randy. Both your channels are in my top 5 of channels i follow as it has made me and still is making me a better angler using your advice. Works even here in South Africa.

Awesome tip. Thanks for sharing

I love fishing tubes and I do these mods and they work! Wetting the tube weight is a new idea that I will try. Drives me crazy feeding the weighted head in some times lol. Thanks Randy

I like to whacky rig them. Just something a little different

Next to jigs, the tube is my favorite lure. Easy to use and rig. I’ve found the Bass also like a tube in the Fall too. Not just a Springtime lure.

Cut a foam ear plug in 2 ! Get a new pencil and push it up into the tube ! You can add scent also * Works wonders !

With a green pumpkin or watermelon tube, dip the tail's in orange or sometimes blue spike it. Then hang on!

We've actually been selling them for a couple of years now when they were made available to us.

Legendary!

I think you got the jig head weights from Bass Pro Shops, I got the same ones! Look at the thumbs up number! Yikes! ✌💖

Good tip.

I’ve tried fishing tubes for decades, no good results. Great info Randy. Thanks

I do most of those… BPS used to make some super soft tubed with the hook slot molded in. Back in the days before there were a million styles of creature baits we used to shove craw worms and curl tails up in them and Texas rig them on khale style wider gapped hooks. There’s a lot of neat stuff you can do with tubes.

A Randy try neko rig a 4inch tube with 2/16oz weight on a spinning rod med-light ! Weight may be less or more due to depth .

The stupid tube rig is fun and is great to fish through cover. I wouldn't fish with an exposed hook unless I was vertical video game fishing.

Tube heads were a pain. I've used the wide head tubes on lake michigan. Nice glide. That wide gap looks good

Kind of a side note but are the break down of the lakes current, or do break them down once for each season and keep it posted. I know y’all have been doing for a while now. Thanks for all your work Randy!

Would you fish a tube from the bank, Randy? I am mainly fishing from the bank an wonder if i can fish it from the bank.

I could never fish an exposed hook like that. Stupid Tube Rig for me.

I like putting them on shaky heads with a twist on bait keeper a lot.

Okay , but what side is that channel cut on if you want to texspose the hook so it can go through brush better?

I do everything the same, but i get way more bites fishing a stupid rigged tube than any other rigging method.

Randy I noticed you put your readers on to do that hack, what do you do when your on the lake do you have bifocals on your fishing sunglasses?

'The little things'...

I want to fish a tube more but I fish a lake with a lot of big rocks in a clear water piedmont NC lake that requires light line.....I get hung up a LOT.....any tips?

Try using a lighter jighead .let's say you are getting hung on a 1/8oz go to a 1/16.if you are having trouble finding the right size jigheads with hook size ,what I do is buy plain jig hooks and round split shot .I then crimp the shot on the bend of the hook like a regular jig that way you can customize the weight and it will be cheaper

Try the "stupid rube", I think you'll find that rig works better in that situation. I love the rig because the tube comes through cover really easily.

Just put them in boiling water for a minute or two. Same as topwater frogs. It softens the plastic

Hard to boil water on the front deck of a skeeter in the middle of a tourney. Also boiling doesnt change color or exterior texture, only softens

Saw that… no more view products

I personally disagree with you on separating the tenticles. The ones stuck together or generally right across from each other and end up looking like craw pinchers in the water
