I don't have a pic, but it's pretty hard to do wrong. I use a short piece of steel coming off a small treble hook (the steel stays hidden by the straw) and tie mono or fluro to that with a small swivel. Vary the size of the straw (between 1-1/2 and 4 inches)according to what they are feeding on just like you would with any other lure. That's all it is, the treble hook keeps the straw from sliding off and it leaves a bubble trail as you troll.

They also work well casting behind a bubble rig or weight just like a Clark Spoon. Bonito love them behind a bubble.
