Posts: 4053 Location: Land of the Musky | John, My 14" Tubby Tubes will be ready to go in 6 weeks. 21 tasty colors to start with and if they go well I will take it up to 42 colors. In 2011 I will have a 10" model (Tubby Jr) as well. Cool thing about them is they have an adjustable weight harness in them. They have two weight areas and both are shaped like an iron cross. You can clip off weight to make them more shallow and glide more balanced or nose or tail down. They also have a nose treble hook. Not so far up that it will tag on your leader but up far enough to get those nose strikes hooked up. The twin reaper tails also screw on and off so you can mix and match tail colors OR you can just remove the tails and the trailer hook and have a shorter tube. All tempered stainless steel rings on these too so you will not have to change out hooks and rings. Last tid bit about these is that 100% of the profits from the 14" and 10" will all be donated to USA Veterans and Children's charities. Bass Pro has already put orders in for both sizes so if you are close to a store you will see them soon. I am sure a lot of other retailers will pick them up. Thanks James PS-Time to let a few pictures out. Here are my color prototypes and a picture of the harness out of a Tubby Tube next to a see through Tubby Tube.

| I find it odd how so many lures fall into the category of "swimbaits". Consider the difference between a bulldawg and a hard swimbait like a BBZ.........they are nothing alike and yet both called swimbaits. It's weird. Here is one I have been building on a limited basis. Jed Attachments ---------------- 009.JPG (117KB - 188 downloads) 008.JPG (105KB - 206 downloads) | |||

| James, If you make your tubes as good as you make your SuperDs and price them as well as you have all of your other tackle these will be a huge hit. Keep up the good work! I only live in Des Moines so I will have to try and make it down to your place once you have them ready and pick up some tackle. email sent for you introducing myself. I will need one of those new telescopic rods too. What a concept you have, quality, low prices and customer service!!! Many in the tackle world do a great job but I think a few others in the tackle industry need to watch and learn  Keep it up and you will keep getting my musky money!!! Bill | |||
