Taylorsville Sat and a question about tubes

[elnutsmalljaws]

There are also a variety of weighted jigs that slip inside the tube, however, I prefer to texas rig em also. For weight, I like to find a small round pebble and shove it up to the very tip of the tube. If you find the right kind of pebble, that is, one made of sandstone, it will not only add some weight, but will also add just a tad of buoyancy which gives it a more natural action in my opinion. I like tubes for bass anytime of the year on just about any waters.

I used to put the styrofoam in the nose of the tube but my hookup ratio was not good. I figured the space needed to compress the tube to get the most hook exposure was compensated. This is why I do it after the hook is rigged because the fish can bite all the way down

I texas rig my tubes as well. Until this past weekend I have always hopped/gave it action while I brought it in. My buddies were slaying lm with a carolina rig (which I didn't have) so I simply drug my tube and started catching fish too.

Anyone ever put a piece of Alka-Seltzer in a tube? My dad used to do that but I haven't tried it.

Where might be the best place to bass fish from the banks at Taylorsville? Still pretty new at bass fishing and haven't got the money to get a boat just yet. Thanks!
