That does seem like a good idea for floattubes Ed. They don't move fast so towing that setup would pose no real problem.

The live bait setup you describe reminds me to ask the question, "Are natural baits allowed in the tourneyment?". The last tourneyment the answer was no. I would have a blast either way and am just curious. Maybe I missed this detail in a previous post somewhere.

(The thought of bait tanks is exciting for me 'cause I'm prolly gettin a kayak fairly soon and am going to set it up with a bait tank, fishfinder, rod holders, and maybe even GPS to re-find once found hard to beat spots on the big pond.)
