Joco's book is Fly Fishing tubing. Pretty good actually. Not taking away from TD's at all, just different approaches.

Yeah different approaches. First time I ever went float tubing was in my brothers round tube on strawberry with my fly rod. Still use the fly rod on occasion when I want to have a little fun.[

Why "when you want to have a little fun"? How is it different from spinning? I mean, Catching fish is fun.....

Diflerent approaches is all. Depends upon where I am at if I want to use the fly rod or not. I usually always have it with me. If I am in the Uintas, that is the rod I usually only have with me. Starvation I will use both spin and fly rods.

Looks like the Meyer book is good for tips on fly fishing still waters from a float tube. But it was written 20 years ago, and tubes have changed a lot since then.
If you really want more up to date information on float tubing now, then get TD's book. It does a great job of covering all of the different aspects of tubing from fins to motors. Then if you are from Utah or Idaho get all of his other great maps and write ups on the local waters. Great stuff!!!
