Re: Ask Gambler!

So how would you or could you, rig a treble hook weedless in a Flipp'n Tube? I know it's a stretch but??? It would be a bit of a stretch. You can rig it semi weedless by Texas rigging the tube as in the vid, however before you skin hook the bait slide a treble hook over the offset shank hook and it...

Re: Ask Gambler!

Hey guys and gals, we wanted to do a brief "rigging/how to fish" vid on the Gambler Flipp'n Tube for you. It's somewhat from the bass perspective but I think some of the tweaks can go both ways - might give you some ideas to play off as well. Looking forward to meeting everyone and shootin...

Re: Flippin Tube.....

I bought a couple of bags of the tubes at Mahoneys this week, and gave them a try yesterday. I originally had it rigged weightless on a 3/O ewg worm hook, but found that I had to work it a little slower than I wanted to get the action I was looking for. I switched to a 4/O 1/8 oz Owner Twistlock an...

Re: Ask Gambler!

Quick Tip:

If you leave the bullet/slip weight unpegged, you will get a more erratic darting fall than if the weight is stopped or pegged.

Re: Ask Gambler!

Mike, Wanted to take a minute to thank you for your advice. Never fished for bass and never used Gambler lures so I am wide open to instruction and tips. I'll be trying the tube lure out in the next few weeks... Great to hear Dave, I think you're going to be amazed how successful it can be in the s...

Re: Ask Gambler!

QUICK TIP: To give your tube more weight as well as create a small air pocket in the bait, cut a piece of plastic from a used bait and insert it inside the tube. It's also a good way to keep the hook buried if fishing heavy wood/cover. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v37/Fish-N-Fool/FNF%20personal...

Re: Ask Gambler!

QUICK TIP: If you rig the Flipp'n Tube weightless it can be walked back and forth just under the surface just like you would a spook on top. Thanks for the help and tips, Mike! TA Mahoney's is right by my office. I'll swing by there at lunch and see if I can pick some up. Chris I just left Mahoney'...

Steve, can't think of any off the top of my head but tell me - who is the independent tackle dealer you normally get stuff from locally? Maybe we can reach out and get some tubes on their shelves for you guys to practice with.

Re: Ask Gambler!

Thanks for your support of our tournament series! I'm interested in the different ways to rig the Flipp'n Tube weedless. I'm also curious to know about it's density/salt content; Will this bait float, or sink? Thanks! Chris, the Flipp'n Tube can be rigged weedless by Texas Rigging http://tinyurl.co...
