Best Helium for tube fishing

Postby ppbass » 3/13/07 9:57pm

Any thoughts on which spinning rod in the helium line is the closest in action to the tube rod in the Magnesium line? Looking for the best tube/grub rod. :?:

I would say the he70ms would do the trick it deoends on what wieght tubes you will be throwing but I have had good experiences with the 7ft mediums. They are stiff enough to set the hook yet they do not over work the tube.

I would have to agree with basscop, the He70MS is my choice as well.

For 1/2 oz. tubes and up I fish a HE76mhs...It's awesome.
For the guys that fish up north like me,it's the real deal..
You can make super long casts and sweep set the biggest smallies with ease.
Just make sure you use a larger spool reel; fill it with your favorite flouro,and hang on.....

My favorite is anything with the MH power rating on the Helium LTA line up.

I seemed to drive that hook better into the smallmouths jaw.

Just my opinion.
