Naw, just makes me more interested in trying tubes this summer. As
long as I'm sitting home with pneumonia, lets hear some comments about
how to fish heavy weeds/wood and slop with them. Please.

PS, I think I caught pneumonia standing outside practiceing flipping
with the new Curados. I love them :}

It's actually fairly simple. Texas Rig the tubes and fish em'! You can
either fish them weightless, letting them slide across the tops of the
weeds, then flutter into the holes or you can weight them with a pegged
weight and flip/pitch to holes and pockets.

Peg a bead, and put a skinny sliding sinker above the bead. Then the tube
floats up off the bottom, and when a fish bites, only feels the bead not the
weight.
