Today I decided to try using a float tube for fishing Lake Hefner. It was really a spectacular afternoon to do so. Getting that low to the water helps keep you cool, for sure. I think it also helps you sneak up on those elusive fish!
Once again, many many casts, only one fish. But this time it was a decent little largemouth bass. I should note that I went fishing on the buddy's boat again Monday. One sandbass for me, 2-3 sandy's and one walleye for Chad.
It's quite alright though, I'm just continuing to try many different baits at different times of day. I have info from my dad's neighbor that plastics and jerkbaits go over well at Lake Hefner. So far I have tried many of such baits to no avail. Fishing report says spinners and plastics. Today it was the popper. One of my favorite baits just because of how fun it is to see them explode on a top-water lure.
You wouldn't believe the looks I got though. I guess people just don't realize it's possible to fish from a tube like that. You can find one like this at http://www.basspro.com/. I got mine for $34 by waiting for an online sale. I printed the sale and took it to the store. It was honored!
Good luck fishing!
