Best Tube Fishing Reel

Greg Evers reported catching Lake Trout using the Tubes technique and Daiwa Tatula LT Spinning Reel on Lake of the Woods. Additional comments from this report: "I fished the steeper drops between 35-50ft and the fish wound come from anywhere between 30ft and right off the bottom. Definitely keep the baits moving to get them to strike. "

Dean Taylor reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Tubes technique and Daiwa Tatula LT Spinning Reel on Lake Francis Case. Additional comments from this report: "Tough bite today. Fished from 5' to 40'. Tried cranks,dropshots,spy baits etc... Top two baits were a 1/8 0z. tube and a ned rig in 8 to 15 fow. "

Bob Downey reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Tubes technique and Daiwa Tatula LT Spinning Reel on Lake Oahe. Additional comments from this report: "Main lake points in 20-35ft with some sort of irregularity and bait present were key. I'd see fish and activity in the area with Humminbird Mega Live. If I couldn't get those fish to bite I'd back off and make long casts with the tube. I'd crack the tube back through those fish and seem to get more bites than targeting individual fish. "

Will Burch reported catching Largemouth Bass using the Tubes technique and Shimano Curado DC Casting Reel on Lake Dardanelle. Additional comments from this report: "You can throw a tube in or around any cover. My way to fish a tube is under docks or in lay downs/brush piles. "

Pierce Knarr reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Tubes technique and Shimano Vanford Spinning Reel on Green Lake (WI). Additional comments from this report: "Smallmouth are loaded up right now on transition areas from spawning to summer deep water. A tube was very effective slowly dragged on the bottom to entice them to bite. 6-10 feet seemed to be the best depth to catch them!"

MDOoutdoors reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Tubes technique and Shimano Vanford Spinning Reel on Sturgeon Bay. Additional comments from this report: "The Surgeon Bay Area did not disappoint! We found smallies on rocky flats cruising around just waiting to crush a 2.5 inch tube. A smaller tube here is key to mimic the common forage of goby and small craws that post spawn smallies cannot resist. A bait that produced bigger fish was the 3 4/5 inch Megabass Dark Sleeper fished slowly around drop offs near the same shallow rocky flats. A longer spinning rod for casting a small tube or sleeper as far as possible can give you a major advantage out here as these fish can be tricky to find on such large flats"
