My qestion is how do you store tubes when your not using them. I have heard and seen two ways, tied in a knot or not. Would like to hear how and why you keep yours the way you do.

Thanks

Hey everyone knew here, came across the forum searching google for tube and worm info. Read a few threads, got a lot of good info, but just had a couple more questions.

Was wondering how you guys slow your boats down? I've seen guys using buckets- anyone have advice on bucket setups they have used. Also people seem to like lead core think im gonna give it a shot, but for people that use weights what do you use for a rig?- wondering what kinds of weight, how much and how far away from the tube they put em.
sorry for all the questions, thanks in advance, tim

hi tim, welcome to the site. just take a 5g bucket and drill a bunch of 1 inch holes in the bottom and tie it to a cleat and drag it beside the boat. a bucket w/ holes works better than a bucket w/o holes. between the bucket and trimming your motor up you should be able to slow down to a crawl. leadcore works great. when i use weight in front of tubes w/o leadcore - i use an egg sinker on the main line before my leader or main line- drail weight- leader. how much weight just depends on how deep you want it. good luck

I set my troll valve and can go as slow as I want, can sit in 1 position if I want
