Forum | An Interesting Observation

I think that a lot would be determined by how the tube was rigged.  If it was Texas Rigged, it would probably come through the weeds fairly decently.

I grew up fishing exposed hook rigs on gravel bars in Wisconsin, so my usual method of shoving a ball head jig inside a tube doesn't work well in vegetation.

I watch outdoor television programming all the time when I'm in my office.  Today, Kim Stricker's "Hook & Look" show was on and they were doing their usual underwater photography, this time swimming through a lily pad bed, chasing largemouth bass.

What really interested me was when they were showing some crawfish on the bottom.  When they're threatened, they'll escape in a series of short hops.  Which amazingly looks like a tube jig being hopped across the bottom!
