Go as slow as you can, and then a little slower. A lot of people swear by putting a sandworm on the hook also to sweeten the deal. I've caught fish both ways, but I like having the sandworm because it makes me feel better. The tube should have a slow lazy roll, which you can achieve by giving it a little twist. Don't let it be too curly otherwise it will spin too fast. I was told that stripers generally bite when it's a slow spin and usually only blues bite, or stripers won't bite, when the spin is too fast. Third and last piece of advice is to make sure that you're super deep, like bumping the bottom, wire is best for getting deep, but lead works pretty well too. I remember a bunch of threads about this from last summer when I was askin the same questions so try a search for tube and worm and maybe you can find some more info. Good luck.

We are using 30lb mono with a 3oz keel weight . So the slower the spin the better?

work the edges of the Canal from Stoney Point Dike to Onset Rip ,Hog Island Chanel . Try to get the tube down but aprox 5-8' off bottom in these areas .Watch out for lobster pots.

There is only one tube that you want and that works the best You don't need lead line with this tube you don't need wire line with this tube it's the number one TUBE LURE in the world: Have you guessed it by now???? It's the SANTINI TUBE LURE! ! ! Go to www.fishfinatic.com Tell them that AUSTIN Dorr sent you

When using this lure just add the sea worm. Stripers love the RED during the day. And I don't know why.
