As always you are very thorough. It has been my experience that using the overdrive on my tube is a rare situation. I've been known to really tire myself out if I'm late on getting home however.
Without knowing the details of my fellow Utah Flotilla member that sent you a PM, if they have a need to go that fast out of a tube, I might humbly recommend a pontoon with oars. I'm still working on a good rod mount for my toon so I could "troll" a bit using my oars.
I went up to my home town (Buhl, Id) this weekend anticipating a tubing trip with my Dad at Clear Lakes. I doubled and triple checked my fishing suplies and realized that I had forgot my waders [blush] after I was a 4 1/2 hour drive away from them.
Ended up fishing from the bank. Near as I could tell, I was landing as many as the tubers were. My best was a fat 16-18" bow that was released to fight another day. The pattern? An olive size 12 "damsel pete." Sportsmans had some tiny props perfect for patterns ranging from 8-12.
Hoping to hit Utah Lake soon in the 'toon.
