Horror stories I don't have, Thankfully....Hey whats up Todd!! Been away from the fresh water action lately, been hitting San Luis Harbor, going out there again this weekend. Yes, same place the woman was killed by a great white....The Hali's have been hitting hard out there lately.

Tube safety in the ocean, this has been a big thing on my mind since I started in salt water....not so worried about it in Fresh. If you are doing mainly salt water fishing then I would recommend a wet suit and life vest....its the best back up. As far as tubes, the Caddis Nav. II has three different compartments, kind of hard to puncher all three at one time...I think you can find them around a $100.

Have fun,
