Ocean, you are always welcome to use my U-Boat as well. I have it all tricked out with Rod racks too.
**Just let me know a day ahead almost any day this next week and I can be up the road for a “hook up”. **
You should be getting a PM from TheKillerBee about possibly joining us on a early Monday trip down to Lincoln Beach. Hope you can make it.
Best wishes to Sparky. Hope he gets his energy back up. Still looking forward to shaking his paw. Yours too.
Dude, count me in for the Gorilla Floatilla on the 19th! That’s gonna be a blast, even if I get skunked, although, with a full moon out, I think even I will get a channel or two for a nice fish fry. Even if I get skunked, it will be a lot of fun being out there with the gang!
Sounds like a lot of fun. Any reason why a guy with an old boat and a lot of inexperience can’t show up and learn a few tricks?
Man! Sounds like you guys had a good time down there! I wanted to make it, but I had work. Just the same as I’ll have work this entire week, and all next weekend, up to the wednesday after. Then it’s off to Oregon for a couple weeks. If only I didn’t need the money… I’m marking off my calendar for the next one, though. I don’t know if I’ll have the $$ for gas after Oregon, but I’ll try to scrape it together. Having a ford f250 v10 sucks!
Heck no. No reason at all you couldn’t. They let me show up - they’ll let anyone. I think the only requirement is that you have to like something about fishing.
What is a u-boat? Either way i would like to try something other than shore fishing.Just let me know what day would be good for you so we can hook up on an afternoon /evening trip.I have got to see why this tubing is so popular!![]()
Hey ocean,
Here are some photos of U-boats on TubeDude’s board. I hope the link works. Scroll down a ways, the U-boats are the on semi-circle ones as opposed to the completely round(donut) shaped ones.
I think the idea at this point is to open the event up to all who wanna show up…bankers, boaters, tubers, tooners or any other kinda “assault” craft.
Also part of the plan is to have a meetup and review session before the big launch, in order to demo different baits and rigs, etc. There will be plenty of writeups made available in advance too, and some pictorial stuff.
In short, we would love to have ya join us.
Actually, U-boat is short for undersea boat - a German submarine during World War II ![]()

Hey Frank, so how’d the tube work out? I noticed from the pictures that I forgot to mention one thing: There is a second smaller tube in the backrest that you are supposed to air up a ways too. In fact, the original tube instructions said to never use the tube without inflating the backrest for safety reasons! Whoops, glad you didn’t get tipped over by a Lincoln Beach wind gust!! lol Anyway, it’s probably more comfortable because you’d have a backrest to lean up against.
Hey looks like the big flotilla turn out well.. Great to hear TB put the hurts to the Kitties in champion ship forum!
I’m glad it is opened to all assault craft. I have been waiting for an opportunity to fish from my pwc.[;)] LOL! My wife and I are planning on bringing the boat and meeting all of you.
Hokay, wise guy. You bring your PWC and I will bring my “remedy”.
Ok, I surrender. by the way, is that what you and Carp punisher use to make bait?
That model works okay for rafts of carp, but for the really bigguns, CP uses his RPG launcher. He always “carries” when he goes fishing.
Okay i saw the u-boat that will work for me! [;)] Let me know when you want to get together![sly]
