Changing Fly Lines Aboard Your Tube

[smallmouth89]

From a tube pull off 20 to 30 feet of flyline and attached leader. Backcast until you feel a slight tug and begin forward cast. If you are 20 to 30 feet off shore and you are targeting fish tight to shore (or cover) retrieve a few feet then pull up for the backcast and repeat. One of the advantages of the flyrod is that you can deliver the same length of line a few feet further along the shoreline very quickly and efficiently. There is no need whatsover for a lot of "false casting". With a floating flyline you can fish shoreline cover very efficiently from a float tube.
