I couldn't agree more... Big Worms are often THE TICKET for the BIG BITE! Below is a link where Greg Hackney set the all time tournament 3 day heavyweight record of 109lbs 6oz on Falcon at the FLW east/west fish off in '08. Had he fished a 4th day with that average, he would've beat 145lbs. His main bait was the 10" Rage Anaconda, it has an overall profile/footprint that makes it look HUGE in the water. Sometime back, I had a banner day with the 10" Thumper Worm with my best 7 fish weighing over well over 70lbs, running out of worms by around noon and had to leave'em biting! Big Worms will always be in my boat regardless of the water I'm fishing.
