    RE: What makes a great Tube bait

    I look for a tube bait that will somehow resemble the baitfish that the Bass are feeding on, type, size and sometimes color will have a lot to do with my selections. I also like a soft bodied Tube that the hook will come thru with the least amount of hook set...Some tubes are more heavy duty and thicker, which would require a heavier hook set... Just MHO....

    RE: What makes a great Tube bait

    MSG,

    There are 4 types of plastic that tubes are made of. One type is what 95% of all manufacturers use. So think of all the major manufacturers out there and they are using that type. I have access to a type that holds the hook but floats. So imagine a tube that you texas rig and would stand straight up. Would that catch your attention? Thanks for your input.

    Marty, in my opinion if you would put three to a bag, charge $10.00 per bag and use the word "LUCKY" somewhere in the title and let everyone know they are hard to find you would sale a ton of them. Just my opinion :) Best of luck with your company . Jarrod

    Jarrod,

    How have ya been. Been doing any fishin? If that was all it would take hell I be a millionaire by now. I will probably sell in bulk instead of the 5 - 10 a bag.
    Take Care and see ya on the water,
    Marty

    RudeZ20,

    I bought some of those tube jigs that stand up and float, built with air pockets in them...There great, they do exactly as the MFG. said they would...I really like them a lot and use them on drop shot rigs at times....Fishing them especially on spawning bass, Bass think they are a hungry fish looking to steal their eggs and they just nail the tubes...
