Not surprisingly, the old reliable tube and worm continues to work for myself and my crews as we inch towards the end of August. 

The tube and worm can be a lethal addition to your arsenal, especially if you primarily fish Cape Cod during daylight hours.

There is just something about properly trolled tubes which illicit bites from finicky bass when they refuse to bite anything else.

For example, in the video below I am fishing with one of the younger members here on My Fishing Cape Cod, 15 year old Chris Colbert.

We had been fishing live eels without any bites, but we immediately began catching as soon as we switched over to the tube.
