Question, everyone talks about what color to use and what size of a tube jig to use, but is there a brand that is better to use than another?? When I go out to Sportsmans it's almost overwhelming to see how many different jigs and how many different brands there are .
Care to share?
Thanks,

I buy whatever is the least expensive, assuming it is the color that I want. I know others who are great tube anglers who do the same. No need to pay extra for salt on the outside of the tube, it washes off quickly anyway. I have paid extra to purchase Radical Glow tubes because they glow much brighter and much longer than the average glow tube.

The key is finding the colors that you want. I generally use Yamamoto tubes because they have the colors I like. I really like Southern Pro for the tiny tubes for panfish and icefishing.

Like others have said, start with the colors you like, and go from there. I like Gitzit, Yamamoto, and even Freshwater Basics.
What are you planning on fishing for with tubes?
