Hey there BassmasterND. Welcome to the club. You will be able to further enjoy many happy hours of fishing while in your new tube.
The majority of your casting techniques will be virtually the same. The only difference is that you will be closer to the water and in a sitting position. If you decide to use a flyrod, you will have to modify slightly. You will also be able to develope another technique called vertical jigging.
All of your normal presentations will work just the same but with the advantage of being able to work horizontally with the shorelines.
There are numerous accessories that you can use on your tube including rod holders, fish finders and other speacialty stuff. We'll get into those as we go and as you build up more confidence with your new water craft.
I'm sure that you will have lots of questions. Please feel free to look through the numerous past posts so that you may get some ideas on types of rod holder mountings, fishfinder mountings, and other misc connections for other options.
Once again, welcome to the world of tubing.[cool]
