Zoom Trick Worms

[B@ssCrzy]

I have just become a big fan of these worms for shakey heads and will be trying them on c-rigs as well. I tried out the green pumpkin color because that is a safe choice and seems to work in most situations. Just wondering what colors everyone prefers for the different types of water you fish. Please specify for clear, stained, and muddy. Thanks for your responses.

clear water-watermelon,watermelon magic, watermelon purple flake, watermelon red, watermelon jelly, motoroil chartruese, GP, GP red, GP magic

dirty water-candy bug, red bug, junebug, black, GP

You could get by most situations with watermelon, GP, and black though if you want to keep it simple.

Green Pumpkin/blue, Plum Apple, June Bug are my favorite 3 colors mostly for stained water.

I fish most of the time in stained water, I really can't tell you if there's a better or color, I use mostly any watermelon pattern you name it, Bama Bug, Red Shad, and black some times merthiolate, or white works well, some days one color rules, the other all the colors work, and other days no one. If I fish on clear water I like to use natural blue.

Mostly clear water fishing for me. GP is the go-to color. Watermelon Candy on sunny days can attract more fish. Black for lowlight conditions. I carry a few more colors in its little brother, the Zoom Finesse Worm. Some purples, morning dawn.

my friend texas rigs them with a 1/16 or 1/8oz bullet sinker on 8lb line. he uses the green pumpkin and we fish clear and muddy water. he does catch fish but i have not seen them work any better then berkley power worms or senkos (my two favorite plastics)

A black trick worm on a drop shot is always tied on on my front deck.

Black or june bug for stained.

Watermelon or pumpkin for clear

That's it

Green Pumpkin Magic for staind and darker water. Cali 420 for clear.

Clear to slightly stained baitfish is the go to color, never fails. Watermelon red for clear or lightly stained. Red Shad for any water color works everywhere in FL. And June bug but even better is June bug red flake or June bug chart tip for staind water or overcast days. I fish small ponds and 99% of the time fish these T rigged weightless.

Green Pumpkin Magic for staind and darker water.

Im not sure if this is a new color but i just found it this year and love it.

Funny, Ive had a bag of these since December that my mother in law bought me. They are.watermelon red, and I rig it texas style, and they produce pretty good for when there is a slow bite in still conditions.

[B@ssCrzy]

Thanks for everyone's input!! Really appreciate it. Looks like I need to get several different colors.

[mikeeasttn]

Watermelon and pumpkin.

Try the Squirrel Tail worms for shakey heads. One of the best out there.

Bright white, yellow and pink trick worms also make very good top water twitch bait around weed beds and pad fields. This is how I was introduced to trick worms and it took me a couple of years before I even tried fishing them on the bottom.

I'm an admitted n00b, so take this with a larger-than-average grain of salt. Nonetheless, I'll just throw in that I am becoming converted to the idea that color selection (within reason) isn't all that big of a factor. I think if you carry GP/Watermelon, something black-ish, and maybe one brighter color (like a burnt red or orange) you will probably be fine.

Up here in VT, the ponds and lakes that I have fished are really clear... And, as far as I can tell, I haven't seen a massive difference in quantity of strikes between any of the dark/natural colors. YMMV.

Never go without a bag of bubble gum trick worms.

i agree. personally, i only stock a green like watermelon magic or baby bass and a white-ish like a baitfish color for all my plastics. very rarely will i grab another color, and its usually only because i like they way they look. like red shad or tequila sunrise.

Clear - Watermelon/Red

Murky - Pumpkin/Chart

I catch 3-4 per hour using these colors in these conditions.
