Location: Germantown, WI | Does anyone know where I can pick up some Lindy Tiger Tubes? I'm looking for the 8" version in Sunfish, Pearl or Chartreuse. All the retailers I frequent seem to have stopped carrying them. The Tiger Tube has been good to me lately. The only place I found them online is the Lindy Tackle website, but I'd prefer to buy them somewhere else if possible. I've found that manufacturers sites rarely have the best prices if they are also sold retail.
It seems like a lot of the online musky shops are now carrying the Red October tubes. I suppose I could try them, but I've had good results with the Lindy tubes. Can anyone tell me about how they like the Red October tubes? |

Location: Davenport, IA | The Red October tubes have a lot more action than the tiger tubes. You can make them dance, and they really do weird things on the fall. |

Location: Land of the Musky | I have seen some cool home made internal rigs for these too. Weight in the middle to let the bait glide more vs hopping action. |

Location: Price County WI | We have been having a hard time getting some items from lindy to stock in our store, tiger tubes are one of those items. We started stocking Red October Tubes this year and they are flying off the shelf. It's also the only tube in my boat right now. |

Location: London, England | I've had an amazing amount of action on the white speckled 6" tiger tube. Much more than the 8" versions. |

| I have used both and found the Red October Plastic to be a bit more durable. |

| I've had great luck with Red October tubes. Last fall, I caught a 28", a 35" and a 40" on a ROB Ninja tube within about 3 hours, and the tube was still usable.
