I was also able to snap a few pix of the session…

haha no kidding. i lost the balance bar on mine so its extra "fun" if you get the kind where you're kinda out of the water like itchybass has, then its not as bad I don't think
shoot... i got mine on sale at sports chalet for 45 bucks so i can't complain

Nice work on the triple tubing!
Looks really swelly to me in those secluded slots you are working there!
Keep searching and you will get into the bigger models!
Looks like FS had the best plan of the day with the BL and the homemade bread stick!
I would have sprinkled the bread around me and attacted some bait fish to pick up the bite though!:Wink:

I never thought about chumming up some baitfish but it might have attracted the dogs too. I did notice theres been plenty of bait in the water tho, last couple of times I wish I had a sabiki…maybe make some legal drifts? I’ll be keeping an eye out for the “S.Fever“.:Wink::Cool:

The Drifting thing seems to be our new thought tactic are the "Legal's" They just don't seem to want to play in tight!
Not quite sure it is as easy in the tube to reset the drift though as it is on the "SF" Hopefully she will return there soon!
Good luck out there!

Looked like you guys had fun out there. Nice going.
I've always thought about having a nice brew while tubing, but beer makes me pee.
Thanks for the report I gotta try tubing that area sometime.
