Stupid Tubes???

[GoBlue]

Does anyone have any info on these??
I see Terry McWilliams finished 2nd at the Northern Divisional at Erie Last week and he credited a Stupid Tube rigging for his success. When I watched him at the BassMaster classic he had a 4th place finish using it. I also saw Mark Zona on Worlds greatest Fishing Show absolutely whack em using this technique, but no one actually showed how they are rigging it that makes it unique.

Anyone have any insight??

for anyone who uses this reig....do you ever have any problems hooking fish with it? It seems that the hook looks kinda small to punch through the tube.

DOUBLE CRAP!!! I've been molding the mustad 28 degree widegap jig hooks in an arkie head & rigging tubes this way for 4yrs, thought I had come up with something unique.
They do work good though, the flat head gives a "goby" profile & makes it glide more erratic as it falls & spirals, never seems to fall the same way twice.

Thanks for the help!! I went to Honeycreektackle.com to order them and they gave me Terry McWilliams contact info. I went out fishing with him yesterday and all I can say is this is an awesome rig to be throwing. He rigs it differently than illustrated above (I can't do computer animation or I would put it on here). The tubes and jigheads from honey creek do come with a diagram. I am sure you can probably use any jighead and any tube and make it work, but what he is using and how he is using it he says is the best available way he has found. It is unbelievable how this presents in the water. Pick it up and it never falls the same way... Once it darts left... then maybe right.... then maybe straight down....
The best thing about them is they are cheap baits to use!! They may not be $15+ baits, but they catch fish!
