How many, if any, float tube fishermans/fisherladies...

Personally I've never had a serious issue with snakes. Most swim on by, others get dissuaded pretty quickly with a tap from a 7' worm rod!

Be sure to get some good flippers...of you will wear yourself out trying to maneuver. Trust me.

I was fishing near a little creek yesterday and two swam on by minding their own business...

Used to tie a 2X6 under a tube and sneak on to a local golf course at night and rip lips on bass all night. Had to ditch it one night and run a 300 yard dash back to my buddy's truck when a security guard caught wind and tried to catch us. I heard he got fired a few days later cause some one stold a bunch of batteries out of golf carts while he was fishing.

That is a really funny visual. Thanks for the chuckle.

used to do it all the time when I would fish large tanks and some small lakes. Caught a lot of bass from a tube.

what was the purpose of the 2x6?

I used to use one to fish rivers and caught a lot of fish that way. It finally rotted out and never bought another one, for some reason. easy, very portable, but obviously needs to be warmer weather.

The guy that I saw fishing yesterday had on neoprene chest waders.. he was plenty warm..

[Coon]

The folks I have been watching at the lake just use tennis shoes over their waders.. Do you all use the flipper thingies...

These are awesome: http://www.rodngear.com/product/fish...-fins-kickers/

Float tube fishing is my number one favorite way to fish.

I grew up fishing in a float tube in VA & NC. Chest waders and long underwear in the spring. Swimming trunks and tennis shoes once it got warm enough. Loved it!!! Have not done it in years.

I guess this is from 40yrs ago or so. My dad is the guy on the upper right:
