Bait Tubes to save weight...

Thanks!

If these tubes are better I'll probably build one instead of rigging up a bait tank.

I think you may have had more drag from the FnD...

With the hydrodynamic mods made above you might hardly notice a bait tube...

I have used both and found that the bait tube works well if you mount it in the right position to decrease drag (for me that was slightly behind the widest berth of the yak).

Thanks, I'll give it a shot...

I used to paddle a Cobra Tourer, huge difference between the FnD and that Tourer, but I couldn't get over the super wet ride.
