A smaller version of our Tender Tube®, the Bass Pro Shops® Bass Teaser™ Tube is a must for northern fisherman looking for a livewell full of smallmouths. A durable body leads the high-action tentacles as they seductively breathe on the fall and retrieve creating an unbeatable strike-stimulating action. Salt-impregnated for a flavor bass can't help but gnaw on!

I'm looking to add several colors of these to my arsenal but I'm not sold any one color and its hard to get a feel for the color without having them in your hand.
I bought some of these tubes along with some 1/8oz bass pro xps tender tube jig heads. It seems like the 3/0 hooks are rather large for these tubes. I also have some 1/8 oz ball jigheads with size 1 hooks, and they seem too small.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Note: I used these tubes in a small creek with good results! But It seemed like i could not get a very good hookset and lost a few. I think this is because of the hook sizes or possibly my technique.
I have gone to rigging these texas style with a bullet weight ahead of the tube and used a 2/0 or 3/0 hook and skin hooking the point into the top of the bait. Give that a try and see if that helps.
There is a 1/16 oz tube jighead here on BassProShops that has a larger hook than the 1/8 oz. I bought both sizes and was surprised that the 1/8 oz hook is smaller. I used the 1/16 oz with the puke color and caught largemouth bass with it.
SLOW is the key to tubes. Best way to start is to fish as u would live bait. Tube itself does most of the work. If u retrieve or jig like most plastics u r overworking them.
i use a crappie jig head and slide hook and all into the tube,this way i am weedless or sometimes i use a #2 hook and and let it float on top of the water
i fish these tubes the same way as you would fish a regular tube. Just use a jig head and run it through the tube body, or you can use a sinker and run the hook through the body. Then just bounce it off the bottom and wait for it to sink before you work it again and you should see results.
fisha123 I use a 1/8 to 1/4 oz tube jig on these and most other tubes, the weight depends on the depth I'm fishing and the line size. 6 lb test and 1/8 oz is a good starting point. Push the jig all the way in and punch the eye thru the tube and tie it on. I usually do a lift and drop retrieve after the bait reaches the bottom. Good luck and keep a tight line.

i just reel in in mid speed and they will hammer it
I normally rig it with a small 1/4 ounce weighted hook. On the cast I let it sink to the bottom then retrieve it like a jig with short jerks. Normally on the drop is when I get most of my hits on this bait. I hope this helps. I always recast to the same spot at least three to four times to entice a bite.

if you fish in moving water, just let the drag of the line pull it along the bottem.
