I saw that too...

I have never tried them but saw that and eyed at them for a while. It seems like a big contraption to put right ahead of your offering but I guess the fish don't seem to mind.

Somewhat off topic but related to T&W fishing and is clear in that add is LOOK AT THE HOOK IS ON THAT TUBE:
The one thing about T&W that amazes me is the hook placement. Most guys put a single lame hook at the tail of thier tube. Sometimes way too small a hook and of cheap quality. Almost every lure or plug I use has a set of fwd hook(s) and 9 times out of 10 they take the fwd hook. We all know bass take baits head first. The last time I used a T&W I had a savage strike that clearly was a big fish. It didn't stay hooked very long, when I reeled it up, the tube was pulled all the way down off the head and was slid down the wire halfway to the hook. I still think these things are rigged wrong for bass...but what do I know?
