River Rock Custom Baits 3.5" pro tube in dark melon candy. It is a hand dipped tube that is really soft and it gets bit even in tough conditions and the fish don't spit it, they eat it!!

A-Jay, that looks like a darker version of my favorite color, Avocado".


fishing user avatardrew4779 reply : 

Venom salt series. Color:  Roadkill.  Why?... Because they catch me tons of fish. 

 

I also like cabin creek and mizmo tubes. 


fishing user avatarMbirdsley reply : 

Zoom tube in green pumpkin 4.0 inch.  Around here it either looks like a goby or craw in the rivers. 


fishing user avatarDtrombly reply : 

BPS Tournament Series 4" in Roadkill color. 


fishing user avatarDorado reply : 

SK Bitsy Tube - Pumpkin w/ green fk

Gitzit 3.5” Tourney Tube- Brown Craw

 

These two have been my all-time favorite bed baits to throw in urban ponds. If I slowly drag these across their bedroom, then I can expect to see the nose down, tail up position :D


fishing user avatarevilcatfish reply : 

Oh boy, I love fishing tubes. These picks are mainly due to price (buy bulk packs) and color selection, as I feel most tubes work as well as other brands.

 

4"-Right Bite and Poor Boys

2.5"-Right Bite and Mizmo

 

Go to colors are smoke purple flake, roadkill or roadkill blue, green pumpkin, and green squash (what BPS calls puke)

 

 

 

 

 

 


fishing user avatarbassh8er reply : 

Yum Vibra King in green pumpkin.

 

The tube is pretty much Zoom’s only plastic bait I don’t like.


fishing user avatarNYWayfarer reply : 

Zoom Super Salty Tubes in Green Pumpkin color. No other tube comes close to performing as well as these do for me.

 

The only flaw I find in them is the tentacles are quite delicate and get shredded easy. They also get caught on the exposed hook of my tube inserted jig.


fishing user avatarFryDog62 reply : 

I had an order going in to TW so added some of the Provider and Dry Creek Tubes mentioned above... (guy said they are fresh out of fallopian though Croakhunter ???? )

Interested to hear what you don't like about these.  I just bought a few packs, came home, turned on my computer and read this.  Hmm....?


fishing user avatarTOXIC reply : 

Any tube I throw has to be triple dipped because I am usually dragging them drift fishing.  Thin walled tubes are shot after 1 drift in sand/weeds.  


fishing user avatarBassNJake reply : 

I like the venom big shots tube.

It's a fat tube and gives a different look as many people will use smaller profile tube baits.

 

The copper flake has been good to me in multiple colors.

fishing user avatargimruis reply : 

I like the Berkley power tube for largies in root beer or green pumpkin because its very durable.  I prefer a smaller one (2.5 inches) for smallmouth like the venom brand.


fishing user avatarScarborough817 reply :

fishing user avatarriverat reply : 

I'm partial to the 4" and 5" tubes made by Right Bite Baits. These tubes are heavily salted and tough enough to last for several fish.

 

I only carry the following colors.

 

Black Blue Tail

Green Pumpkin - Red and Green Glitter

Black - Red Glitter

South Africa Special

 

Right Bite Baits - http://baitandlures.com/


fishing user avatarBigFishRI reply : 

Yum Vibra King. Dark Grasshopper color, which I think is discontinued now. The newer colors Snot Rocket and Summer Gill are pretty solid.  I usually fish this weightless with a 5/0 VMC swimbait hook.
