I choose not to fish the tube during the night. Some have done well, but I prefer other methods.

I have full confidence with tubes during the day along or on top of structure. I troll tubes between 1.2-1.8 knots on the GPS. If you have a GPS it will help to find a speed that is most productive and consistent. If you don't have a GPS and you are trolling along a shoreline, just think of a "slow, lazy walk speed". Instead of trolling think strolling. It works for me.

Most of my fishing with the tube is under 15'-20' of water. 30lb mono with 40-50lb flouro leader gets the job done. I keep a lead core outfit for deep water with me. To be honest it's stays in the rod holder 90 percent of the time.
