[#0000FF]If you go to your favorite browser and type in "Game Changer Flies" you will find a lot of good info on those new goodies. As expected, creative tiers have seized on it and have come up with many variations and the use of different materials. I plan to do a lot of experimenting...including trying some bead chain as the articulation rear part instead of the links. But because I also make spinners and other wired goodies I have lots of wire and know how to make efficient loops...so I can make my own links.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]I put out a CD/book several years ago on "Tubin' and Toonin'"...covering my first 50 years of float tube fishing. I am attaching my introductory chapter which includes most of my personal history. Some pics from the past.

[#0000FF]Also including a pic of the Fishmaster paddle pusher "fins". Of course I had to get a pair to try them out. They were designed to allow Oklahoma stock tank bass fishermen to walk in the shallows and then paddle across deeper spots. And they worked okay for minimal use. But if you ever wanted to get anywhere...fast or slow...you got a severe case of crotch cramps. I used them once, for about 5 minutes. I went back to good dive fins and have never changed.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]I used to be a minimalist. And I used to have scruples. But then I got vaccinations for both.
