How did you rig it Joe?

[JoeS]

2/0 Gamakatsu Offset Shank Worm(Round Bend)......Canoeman Loop Knot......Weedless.....Weightless.....You can actually walk the dog like a Z-Spook with more action or let it sink slightly to mimic the Mirrodine......crazy action.......Texas rig it and you can jerk bait it.....

I tried it this morning with a 4/0 EWG worm hook. With no added weight it could be almost top water, subsurface and a bottom bouncer. Casting distance is okay but you likely wouldn't rig it without weight to fan cast an open flat.

I also tried adding a 1/16th oz weight. It was a Texas rig weight but I just slipped it in the tube. It was held in there by the belly if the hook. Yes it effectively narrowed the bite gap but I was too lazy to cut and re-tie

Didn't catch anything with it but neither did the other 2 guys I was with regardless of what they were throwing. Can't catch fish if the fish aren't there.

I like the action

I bought a couple of bags of the tubes at Mahoneys this week, and gave them a try yesterday. I originally had it rigged weightless on a 3/O ewg worm hook, but found that I had to work it a little slower than I wanted to get the action I was looking for. I switched to a 4/O 1/8 oz Owner Twistlock and it was spot on. It is a big bait, and almost feels like you are throwing a plug. I got some positive reviews from the local wildlife. I caught a nice slot redfish, but this one was the highlight of the day.

Make a believer out of you Chris?

And they waste all that time on those silly bass fisherman.

The tube continues to impress me. This 24" trout pounced on it right next to the boat this evening. This fish had very cool looking big spots.
