IMO no need for a top hook. They are after the worm not the tube. It is just a delivery device. Store bought tubes use low quality hooks and hardware. Make your own.

The bass can detect when the tube ends and when the worm starts when it is dragged by them at 3 feet/sec? There eyes are not that good. Also, if they only want the worm how come the tube does not scare them off? There has got to be a better and cleaner way deliver a worm at a given depth then attaching it to a 3' hunk of hose.
Hmmmm, This will call for some downrigger experimenting next year.
Tube gets there attention, worm smells. Curiosity killed the cat. Dragged very very slow. Many a charter capt. has made a living doing just that. I use only 18" of hose.
