Search EBay for them but, shhhh don’t tell anyone!

Barrett Float Tube Bass.JPEG

I look even worse than your buddy there.

^me fishing an old tube I found off craigslist for 10$. Felt like the water was up to my chest! Those old tubes are brutal compared to those new inflatable yachts.

Pretty easy to spot the newbie on the lake eh? (The surfing ...

The guy that originally made them moved to Texas from San Diego...they're still out there!

Yup, Frank from US Bait Co! I just got a bunch of the 10” “artifishables” worms from him back in September after I caught my yearly PB (so far) on one. Great guy to deal with.

I bet those Texas guys are like "you call that a worm?!" Fluttercrafts are SO not Texas.

El Capitan Tube Mobb Big Bass Tournament 2023
https://youtu.be/dSXOmC-fRBo
Hey all I headed out on Sunday for my first float tube tournament with Tube Mobb. I saw these guys on Instagram and had run into them at a few lakes. This was the first event of theirs I had participated in. Anyone in a float ...

Those are fun. We use to have Floatation Nation. Fisheromen started his tubin days then. Oldirtybasser started it.

Dfishin ! Flotation Nation was good times...

Pourboy , always enjoy the videos and I have thought about doing a Tube Mobb event. I just never got into the "measurement-style ...

I totally get it. This was the first one they’ve done by weight apparently and it went well so there should be more. It was a fun day for sure.

Billy Senko says 4-inch Yama Senko BB #305 and or 4-inch Daiwa Yamamoto Neko Fat Worm BB #305-weightless Texas rigged 3/0 Gamakatsu O'Shaughnessy Bend Offset Worm Hook Bronze. Barrett 26 fish in one spot. That day they would not bite anything else and that was not the only time for that scenario ...

Go to bait?

It's too bad the senko's and ika's are made with a lesser quality plastic yet you still have to pay more. One little dink bass seems to destroy a senko when before you could normally catch 3-4 on the one plastic.

Fat IKAs are good but I bought almost the entire stock of the regular Ikas BB #305 before they were discontinued by Yama. Same same BB #305 regular Ikas are the bomb along with the fat ikas in the greenish shades they now make. Always wondered why Yama does not make BB #305 Fat Ikas. Unfair to the ...

It was cold when I woke up and had not planned to go fishing as my goal was to stay warm...ha ha. Anyway as the morning dragged
on it started to wear on me and it was well after 9a.m. and I decided to load up some gear and hit the SD River for a few hours. Had
a jacket on, but it warmed up enough ...

I put in 7 hours of hard work yesterday...with only 4 bass landed, and 2 others lost in the trees. The water temp was 59 at sunrise, 61 by 1:00...and it definitely felt like winter at launch. I started out looking for the fish that have been running the brush lines the last couple weeks, but only ...

Been focusing my efforts east of SD recently since the bite from shore locally has been pretty tough. A short Cap trip on Saturday that produced one clone bass reinforced that point for me.

With my brother back in town permanently we decided to hit the desert Friday and Sunday to see what we could ...
