Thanks for those great & informative tips!!👊🏻 Just got some stupid tube jigheads and ready to give it a try!! Thanks for the advice on a heavier rod when using this method!!! Stay Safe & God Bless!!!
Great video. You wil not believe me we I tel you this but finding a tube in South Africa is about impossible. The only tube you can find if you lucky is a zoom tube 3,75 and 4,25. Than you are limited to maybe 3 coulers. Green pumpkin , junbug red and watermelon. I would love to give it a shot but it's not a sitaineble bait by us. Would love to fish it more.
@@iamalemontree I have used both the Bite Me tube head and the Bass Pro Goof-E tube head. The Bass Pro one the eye is cross-eyed or perpendicular to the length of the jig head and the Bite Me is positioned inline. I can't say as that I prefer one over the other.
You definitely could. I don't use a lot of scent myself, but a tube is a great lure for it. When I have used scent with a tube I always prefer the liquid scent and squirt some into the tube itself and let it dissipate that way. Excellent question!
Thanks Steve. Great video. Tube fishing is the best. Love the tug.
It is a lot of fun. When I go to the Boundary Waters it is the only lures I take.
Love fishing tubes!!! Thank You so much for the tips!!
Dude, that’s gonna be a game changer for me, never been good at tube fishing but I think this will defiantly fit my style of fishing, thanks Steve !!!
Good luck! Let me know how it goes.
Awesome information. 👍🏾💯👍🏾

@@SteveRogersOutdoors Will do!!!
Thanks a lot.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching.
I hear ya..The real tube, was the FLYING LURE...WHEN THAT CAME OUT, YOU WASN'T EVEN BORN YET...😂😂
I do remember the flying lure! I totally forgot about that one.
@@SteveRogersOutdoors THAT WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE TUBE..
The Gitzit tube supercedes the flying lure by at least a decade but the flying lure was a cool bait too
I sure do remember those things!! They were great to use in those hard to reach places

Wow! I never would have guessed. That really surprises me. I think maybe I see a new business plan for you!
I realy tel you their is very little to no one fishing tubes in South Africa. I know you wil make a killing with a tube in ower water.
Great video sir! How easy to skip a stupid tube compared to a jig brother?
Great question. A stupid tube will skip very nicely.
@@SteveRogersOutdoors thanks sir! Whats the best weight stupid tube jig head for a baitcaster setup brother?
@@iamalemontree I usually stay in that 1/4 to 3/8 range. But some folks like the 1/2 for skipping.
@@SteveRogersOutdoors thanks sir!! What brand do you go with?

Have you tried the Yamamoto snagfree tube right. Weedless and drops like a normal tube
I have not. I will have to do that. Thanks!
How heavy of da jig head do ya often use for stupid tube brother?
I’m a big fan of the 1/4oz.
@@SteveRogersOutdoors thanks brother! Does the 1/4 get buried in the heavy weed dou? Or is it just sitting on top of the weed?
@@iamalemontree if you have really thick weeds an 1/8 oz may be a better option and less likely to fall deep in the stuff.
@@SteveRogersOutdoors thanks brother! Wuts the rod/line setup for stupid tube?
@@iamalemontree I use a braid to fluoro leader on a medium power rating. Usually has a fast action. The leader is most often 10lb.
Would you scent these?
You definitely could. I don't use a lot of scent myself, but a tube is a great lure for it. When I have used scent with a tube I always prefer the liquid scent and squirt some into the tube itself and let it dissipate that way. Excellent question!
Never understood why they put all the salt on a tube. No other soft plastic I know of has the amount tubes do
Some of them do have a lot for sure. The bottom of the bags will be full of salt.
Hey now don’t be telling everyone about this
