I've been toying with making small tubes recently and came up with this one.



It's 1.25" in length and slightly thicker than a conventional store bought tube. I like the compactness of the bait and hope to get it in the water this next week at least once. I'm thinking the profile of this critter will be a hot one for working the sunken wood and dock pilings we'll see the crappies heading for pretty darned soon.
