The Low Down On Worms


We all know that plastic worms are 1 of the most productive lures there are, but did you know certain worms have unique uses? I have a entire tackle box with absolutely nothing but plastic worms in it, hundreds of them!

Right here is what I use a certain worm for:

Floating Worm…I use this worm in shallow water and primarily in the spring. I use no excess weight whatsoever and like to use it when the fish just begin thinking about spawning.

Stick Worm…..I use this worm in 60-70 diploma water. If you use it whacky type it will vibrate on both ends.

Paddle Tail…..This is 1 of my favorite shallow water lures. When I fish vegetation I use lengthy casts and just reel it back again in gradually.

Gator Tail…This is also a shallow water worm that I use in the summer. It’s also great on streams and rivers.

Curly Tail….I use this worm in the summer around stumps, docks, timber, lily pads and it is 1 of my favorite when I fish deep water to 20 feet.

Directly Tail…This is 1 of my favorites for docks, timber and brush. I have discovered it does not wrap around brush like most worms do.

French Fry….I always carolina rig a french fry and use it in clearer water. The action of this is incredible when you transfer your line and the excess weight arrives up the line.

Ribbon Tail…I study about 30 many years ago of people fishing with a 10 inch ribbontail at night. I am right here to tell you this functions, I have caught some nice bass on a big ribbontail. I use a regular ribbontail when fishing 10-15 feet of water as well.

If you like to worm fish now, try some of the types of worms above for specific circumstances. I believe you’ll like the results.
