I agree with what you said I have done the same thing with a slip bobber and it will fall on its side when you get a bite that lifts the weight if it does not you need to adjust the bobber on the tube.
If you are having problems with the jig head sticking in the tube go above the jig 12-16 inches and tie a swivel. the bobber will stop at the swivel when you reel it up and will not stick if you use the right size. You can of course use a light line under the swivel than the main line.

I think there are times the slip bobber will work as well as the three way swivel set up however I think on of the problems with the slip bobber is when you have fished the rig in one spot and want to move it a few feet the slip bobber rig will come up out of the zone more than the fixed rig.
