Those things flat out work. I watched the how to make a flig video… Not sure I want to make them. Dang! At what speed do you pull those?Yeah, I fished from my tube. But I had a 40# thrust electric for variable speeds up to about 3 mph. However, most days I started at about .5 mph and then varied the speeds from .7 to as much as 2.5 for BB or cranks. But most of my fligging was under 1.5 mph. I also pulled fligs using only fin power...stopping, starting, speeding up and slowing down to vary the presentation. Often got more inquiries than a slow steady electric motor thing.
Here's another Youtube video on flig rigging and fishing. https://youtu.be/0v3pDtYDsZs
And a 2 part PDF file on shapes, sizes and colors.
