I've only fished the worm on the tube. Never did the stuffung with oil. I use the color to depth ratio to guage how many colors I think should be let out. That's usually because we're moving when we run out line. When we slow down to trolling speed I let out enough to bounce and then reel back just a bit so my worm doesn't get ripped off by the bottom.

Low and slow is the way to go...as slow as you can go. I've heard of a lot of guys hooking up durung a turn because turning slows your gear down. I've also heard of guys hooking up going into the current as that slows you down as well. You can always do a little zig-zag if you think you aren't going slow enough.

Was down off race point last week and we let out the tube with a worm...as soon as the rod hit the holder the line ran. Not a keeper but a 26 incher isn't bad for a few seconds work...
