Black neon is nothing more than black with red flake.

I love Janns. Their plastic is good quality stuff at reasonable prices. They also offer some great finesse skirts if you like JNP for smallies
I recently started using the 2.5" tube and have had great success with it. I use the greenpumpkin in 2.5", but be forewarned it's more like a smoke watermelon color with black flake...the smallies don't care though. Colors catch fishermen, not fish
The waters i fish are generally 3'-5' deep so a 1/8oz tube jig with a thin wire Mustad BLN 2/0 hook is all I need, but I'll use a 1/4oz if the water is up or I want the tube to sit still along a current seam.
Other tube manufacturers I like are Case Plastics, MicroMunch Tackle and Yum, but a tube is a tube so i always hit clearance bins and get what I need that way. Pick the brands you prefer. I think Zoom tubes are too thinly walled in the head. That's just opinion though
