Different strokes...
I predominately fish worms...for me, they work, and fishing
is about enjoyment, *catching*, and having fun, not about
money, tournaments, etc.
So 4" senko-style worms are my go-to, but I also use 5", 6"
as well as other types of worms (ribbon tail, Finesse, Trick, etc.).
This isn't a 100% of the time thing. I fish jigs, swimbaits,
spinnerbaits, cranks, lipless cranks, etc. Just not nearly as often
as worms....
