Yup, that is what I use to do when I first started Bass fishing, altho it was actually a car tire's innertube. Worked great. The first scene of the brushy shoreline looks very much like the pond I fished in N Calif. way back in high school. Yes I had great results with a black plastic worm, and top water. But didn't own a net. And the pond was about a 1/4 or 1/2 that size. :-)

Do you guys use fins, oars, or an electric trolling motor?

I use float tube fins so I can put them over my old tennis shoes. I've heard guys using scuba/snorkling types tho. We get around just fine with the Caddis ones and have for the last 15 years

Thanks for watching guys !!!!. I rarely use my float tube. I couldn’t get my 12’ jon boat back in his pond so I brought the tube ! But i do use flippers. i got them at cabelas for about $20. I wear my waders, tennis shoes and the fins !
