New!!! what fishing gear to use out on the float tube??

1st off not sure if im in the rite forum

a have a question on what kind of lures and stuff like that to use out in the float tube?? iwas wondering if any of my LC's or like the catalina rig with the sand worm and all that surf fishing stuff would work out on the float tube in like sum deeper areas? ilove fishing for halis but really like catching any kinda species big or small as long as iget sum action

and also do krocadile lures work out there?? thnx alot in advance you guys have been alot of help

Hey Jesusbm562 Welcome your in The Right place
I like to use Jig Heads size range from 1/8 to 3/8 and Gulp bait always works for me
can't hurt to try what you have also you never know its really how you work the bait
to get the fish to bite have you gotten out yet and where have you fished

Everything has its time and place. Anything you throw from shore or boat will work from a tube.

LC you use in the surf run shallow so they may not work as well from a work as you will be in deeper waters.

Drop shooting, swim baits, cranks, spinner baits are a few things I use.

i havent got my tube yet im waiting till 7:30 to call cover bonanza so ican place my order of 2 float tubes

Cool when you get them hit me up and we can go out sometime, allot of the guys also go out during the week and the weekends so there is always somebody out on the Water also there is a Gathering in Aug at Lake Perris should be a good time

i dont have a car so im not ganna be able to make it

welcome

make sure you have some pliers of some sort to take out hooks because they sometimes swallow it, its good to carry a lip gripper too

welcome to the forums anything works on a tube as long as it fits in your tube

good to have a net too just in case you catch something big

Don't glue your rod holder together yet because it kinda changes when your in the water I learned ...that the hard way

x2! I tweaked mine several times before I was happy with it. Then I glued it. THEN, I wanted to make one last change. Oh well, it was a minor thing I wanted to change LoL!

Just be sure to snug up all the pieces each time you hit the water, so you don't end up falling apart!

i gotta start on my rod holder

If a fish is gut hooked it is best to cut off the lead and let it go. The hook will rust out fairly quickly and the fish can purge the bait if it didn't come off when you cut the lead free . Trying to remove the hook only damages the fish and they die. This is bad for the sport.

Tight lines.

I got me and my gf each a pair of the fish grip

Well that goes without saying don't you think? Let me ask you, are you fishing for food?
