Cool. I like the design of that one above though it looks kind of heavy.

Show us what you come up with.

I have a couple that I used to use, just a little suggestion for you that seems to have been missed.

Since you paddle forward, make sure that the baits are inserted tail first...learned that lesson the first time out trying them...

The suggestion though is to drill holes on the side of the tube as well, I drilled holes the length of the tube at each quarter of the tube. That way, even when you are not paddling (to have water movement come through the front/back of the tube depending on current) you will still have constant water movement for the bait to breathe.

I have had baits lively and last all day, released upon landing to waters edge to escape the birds...
