Don't forget to de-burr the inside of the holes, lest your bait tube be a bait grater.

Holes look to big?  Looks big enough for squid to squeeze through.  Also, smaller anchovies and sardines will try to go through it and kill themselves.   :smt003

Great idea for my next one.
I added holes to the front and back covers on mine for better flow.
