I watched this video before day two of Ontario Kayak bassmasters championships. The treble hook tip got me two big bites to punch my ticket championships in Tennessee 2023. 😊 thank you !
I'm an old guy bass fishing my favorite type of fishing I dont use any electronics just love to get out there and cast around with different techniques and you my friend have given me so many cool ideas in the shop just want to say thank you another great idea
I'm the same way, and I think if you're a pro you shouldn't be using the sonar and need to set right up on top of them and watch your lure on the screen drop down and dangle is their face. That takes alot of the skillsets that us old guys have and use to find the fish, thats half the battle then to watch your bait on a screen and basicly try to land it right in their mouth. Heck might as well hire someone to swim down and hook them for you too, and they call themselves pros and half of them could fish and catch without them. Old schools have more skill sets to find them than the pros even know about !
I’ve been kicking butt with this technique for about 5 years now and don’t see a lot of people doing it, that’s probably why the fish absolutely love it
Good afternoon Mr. Mike Iaconelli Fishing, I have Enjoyed "Tremendiously" following your career in Bass Fishing! LOL! DUDE! U JUST KILL IT! Your content and Expertise on Snapping a Tube is so Precise and True "I am JUST FLOORED!" LOL! 🙂I love your discreate objective in obtaining your viewers attention in detail of presentation as well as size, color, and rod and reel selection along with line! 🙂You my fellow Fisherman are a "Force to be Reconed with!" LOL! May "GOD BLESS U and Your Familiy!" Keep a Tight Line my Friend and NEVER Stop Fish'n! Sincerely, Mr. Carl J. Gwizdala, aka "DESPERADO!"🙂
Damm Ike this is an old school trick that didnt need any videos. The spiral fall is what draws the strikes. I havent seen anyone with a center loaded tube in 25 years
A tube has been my confidence bait for years. I can contest that Ikes method works and works well. Last week I fished this method at a heavily pressured 5 acre county park, I usually catch 12-14" lmb, this past week unknowingly I fished this method minus the heavy jig head. I try to mimic a crawdad under attack. I caught 6 bass 3-4lb and only 1 12" in less then 2 hours. If Your not fishing a tube jig your missing out!
I 've been fishing tube jigs and snapping them since the early 90s, but I didn't know about adjusting the spiral by the placement of the hook eye in the tube body. I really appreciate the tip, Mike!
Old Trucker Mike is back on the road touring! I’ve got you on my fantasy team this go around. You and I talked at Lake Travis TX 2017 before MLF. So glad your back to the ROOTS bro! Love the podcast, love your heart, love your bam in your face biach, and send my love to Becky and the gang! Tuber for life!
“The closer you are to the nose of that bait with the eyelid, the tighter that spiral is going to be on that fall.” This information was what I was looking for! I heard from BassResource that it was a 90 degree line-tie that made the spiral so, I shouldn’t be using a 60 degree line-tie tube jighead. But obviously this is not true! Thanks for helping me understand the spiral motion on the tube and not misleading me!!!
I watched Zona talk about Tubes and cracking. But you explain it were I can get in my head on every thing I need to be successful at Tubing. Love your UA-cam Channel ❤. Shawn.
I am really looking forward to the elites fishing Wheeler but the TVA killed the grass. I had to focus on points and bluff walls and did pretty well, my 8 yr old son has so much fun, the fish weren’t big but we caught about 15 in 1.5 hours. I was really hoping the elites would fish the lake like it was 2 years ago. The grass had that lake producing quality but it’s back to the old wheeler now. I’ll be pulling for you Ike!!
I learned this by accident after running out of light tube jig heads. I put a heavy tube jig and saw that spiral and started smashing fish. Changing the eye position is new to me.
Thanks Mike!, I haven’t tried that specific technique but I will !! Here in Southern Idaho it’s so rocky ( mostly lava rock ). My most successful technique in the VMC rugby jig. I can fish it weedless and works pretty good in the rocks too. Awesome information your giving. Thanks again Mr. Mike!!
Awesome tube fishing been hot this fall can’t wait to try the #5 treble stinger they been smashing them tubes and dropping then lol learned a lot Ike coolest as always! Love you man!
Nice "bars" you have there Man! Wish folks would stop reminding us of tubes n Carolina rig. Everyone goes with the latest n greatest, meanwhile the smallies still can't resist the tube!
Man, I’m glad you did this video. I’ve been watching Zona do this for awhile now but never really explained the technique. What are the best conditions for cracking a tube?(water temps, clarity, etc.). Thanks again for your fantastic content.
I've been fishing tubes forever one of my favorite bates has anybody ever tried to take just a little piece of Alka-Seltzer and put into the two it works fantastic give it a try
Thank you for taking the time to respond!. Appreciate u&ur channel.. I've learned ALOT since following u the last couple yrs..stay safe good fishing brother!.I look forward to many more tips&just great content!.
This has really helped my thinking of tube fishing i always fished it like a warm never known how the snaping was done thanks mike Also would you recommend using snaps or no snaps im a co angler in my club and i only carry 4 rods
Nice video mike. Never tried snapping a tube. Tubes seem so old school and haven’t done one in years going to have to dust this off and give this a shot
Mike, great video and awesome tips as usual!! one question though does the stash play a role in the technique at all??? just wondering. rock on brother..
@@mikeiaconellifishing Hahaha. Mike I almost spit my beer out! that would have been tragic,but if you come come out with glazed donut scented baits!!! I am on it. take care brother.
I tried this for the first time today after I threw my whole tackle box at them with no bites. Second cast a 6 pounder smashed my tube on the third snap and had my reel screamin!!
Hi MR IACONELLI i am RICCARDO from ROME and i follows già videos the s vert interesting for the use of the tube what do you think f the tubes can be used with the head from NED RIG It Will have the sale effect as folling propeller thang again for tour advice however my son PATRIZIO Aldo follows per on UA-cam
Awesome vid! I love that you are sponsored by Berkley and Rapala and I can get pro tips for baits I see on a daily basis, that I can associate with and relate to. I also like lures that don't make me feel like I got raped after purchasing! Look forward to all of your content.
He kicked your butt because it only works for him!!!!! Lol. Ive talked to soooo many derb anlers that cant figure it out. It only works for Zona. Shit dont mke no sense!!!!😂
Love Berkley too mr . Mike , the scent is cooked in , and Berkley has the best scent that scent is everything !
I watched this video before day two of Ontario Kayak bassmasters championships. The treble hook tip got me two big bites to punch my ticket championships in Tennessee 2023. 😊 thank you !
Good stuff! Heck Yeah! Tear em up!

Nothing more classic than a tube
Ive found that instead of snapping it up if you kinda ratchet it up then let it free fall they kill it on the drop

Been fishing tubes in the Susquehanna River here in PA for years. I like your added feature of the treble hook. Thanks a lot.
Killer smallies
Thanks Ike! You always seem to reinforce things that I already knew and show me something new.
Happy to help!

Tube has always been my go to and I've been using this technique for 20 years being from Northern michigan

Thanks Shawn!!! I appreciate that!! Never give up!!
I'm glad U explained it that way. I always thought U tried to keep the tube on the bottom. Awesome video!

That 'stache has me remembering my days as a fireman...
I learned this by accident after running out of light tube jig heads. I put a heavy tube jig and saw that spiral and started smashing fish.
Changing the eye position is new to me.

What's old is new!! Give it a shot!!
I've never fished a tube in FL. I'll have to give it a shot.
Don't be afraid to. I rip it through the thickest stuff all over the country.
💯
Thanks for the videos
Thanks for watching John!!
Thanks for the info..

Hi,
Tubes have been a good versatile lure for many years.
Absolute classic
Love snapping a tube then fishing. 🤓🔥🤣
💖 Another very educational video.
That's Elizabeth!!
Ya gotta grow the chops if you're rocking the handle bars
Mike, great video and awesome tips as usual!! one question though does the stash play a role in the technique at all??? just wondering. rock on brother..
The stash is a scent keeper
@@mikeiaconellifishing Hahaha. Mike I almost spit my beer out! that would have been tragic,but if you come come out with glazed donut scented baits!!! I am on it. take care brother.
Good information
Thanks Darlene!
very different and interesting. thanks

That is Awesome!!!!!!!!
I like Mike.👍👍
I remember when it was,
who the hell is this guy lol
Fort Loudon and Tellico
Hey Mike, great video as usual. Does the treble hook need to be bellow the tube hook?
I was snapping a black tube with blue flek (get bit baits- best tubes money can buy) and ended up catching a musky
I like to dip the tube head into my smelly jelly before inserting it, still goes in smooth and gives it the scent too
Another great video! Thanks for the tip.
Anytime Kevin!
hi ike, if i may ask can that technique be fished from off shore or boat fishing?, just wondering thats all, thank u ahead of time
This is great info. Do you think it would be a good way to fish this time of year ad a co
It def does not hurt to give it a try.
Awesome video
Thank you Thomas!!

Man, that Stache though. I wish I could get away with that look.
I have been snapping small tubes for trout since last fall and it can be a killer.
Never give up!!!!! And...... Grow the Stache!!
