Nice to see you guys caught the article... blues have a tendancy to hit the tube anywhere along it's length. There is no problem hooking up with stripers with only the single hook in the rear.

Not all tubes are created equal and a lot of experimenting went into mine before I decided on materials and colors. They are also made with musted (2X) saltwater hooks.

The keels work great and do just what the article describes... they let me deliver the tube down to 30-40ft with a medium action conventional set-up and braided line.

Hey Sandman, I am looking at it for another option in trolling MV when I am down there the first week of June. My friend who guides out of Menemsha uses the T&W alot and is very successful with it. He doesn't use a worm he uses Uncle Josh Pork rind in a secret sauce. I will also be tring rip jigging with wire and parachute jigs. I already have my fluke rigs made up so I bet last years 11lber.
