The 4.5" tube makes an awesome bait, every time. The spline fits like a glove and there is no flashing. Add a touch of softener or worm oil to the insert and it slides right off. The head is smooth for easy dipping and the body has a very small scallop.
We will be introducing several new baits in the tube family in the coming weeks to make sure you are ready for the Spring!
If you have one of our molds that already has a skirt (uses a spline - the part that makes the tail) you do not need to buy another one if you don't mind swapping out the tips. The spline can be used in any of the regular skirted molds. If you don't already have a spline (one of our skirted molds), you will need the spline to make the tail. You can order the spline and insert by clicking on the appropriate item in the table above.
