Who makes the best tube bait? It's a pretty simple bait, so does it matter what brand you use?

Thanks

I've been using tubes made by Prowler Lures for several years. They're more durable than other tubes I've used and the fish seem to like them pretty well. They are garlic and salt impregnated.

As with any lure, rod, reel, ect... Go buy several packs of different ones and try them for yourself. They are all a little different, just like there are different ways to rig a tube for action and presentation. Everyone has their own opinion on what works for them, just may not work for you.

tubes can be different in many ways, just have to use the right tool for the job at hand.

Most importantly, find one that is soft and gets a good hookup.

Lake Fork Craws
Yum Vibra King
Strike King coffee tubes

These are the 3 that I have used and caught fish on but I mostly just fish them in the spring when fish are on beds.

A&M bait and crooked creek tackle both are my choices. Crooked creek has a lot of color choices and they work.

Yes! Brand matters! What I look for mainly is the tail length compared to the body... and color of course!

Here are a couple brands that I like.
