Saw a show with Jarret Edwards and how he rigged his tube baits. He was using Gary Yamamot tube jigs 1and 3/4 in. With a ball head jig, if he put the jig inside the tube it droped straight down and if left outside it sprialed down. Was wondering how you guys fish the pro series tube which are 3 in. Oh and by the way Thank you to all who responded to my post about where to get Midsouth jigs.
I haven't fished the pro series yet, but if I am fishing a tube, I prefer the head inside Nimrod style.
I push over barb. Allows for quick changing. Rcc is still using the amateur tube lol. Nimble head drops the tube inside the jig, but he only knows 2 color tubes lol. We all do it different :-)
I knew one of the Pro's would show up and clarify the right way to do it. Thanks
Jig Head stuffed inside tube for me! What do I know tho? When I tight line yes!
Is there an icon button for "What are they talking about?"..........
Dose the jig head go in or out of the tube bodyQuote:

See? I am so lost here.............
now, if the question is "Which way do you hook a minner?", then I'm sort of, like, a real pro................
When spider rigging- thru the lipps dead center. Under a cork-from the tip of tail to right behind the head. When picky it can make a big diff. When I single pole I put the head inside the tube.
JW, how does "Nimble head drops the tube inside the jig" This I would like to see.
So if head is inside tube what does head color matter when rigging ur jig....
When fishing tubes I use a Southern Pro Umbrella tube which is larger. Unpainted leadheads are cheaper and would not matter anyway inside. Here is part of a newspaper article on Crappie fishing with this detailed.

I don't use tubes! !!!!!
I do both depending on conditions
Harold the article nimble posted shows how.
Dead on if the jig head is inside the tube the color of the head doesn't matter.
If the jig body is pushed up on the barb then color can matter sometimes.
Buckrub if it slides off the use a little cray glue on the jig lead barb. The plastic won't slide off then.
Disclaimer there are many ways to fish. Just choose what fits your style!!!
you dont use colored heads when using this style setup , straight lead unpaintedQuote:
