I like the ol' monster but use the 12"

I have a box full of 12" Black shad Culprits. I use a leather craft (big) needle to to thread line through the worm to a second hook (remember the little "Creme" worms with two hooks). This is a massive rig with a bullet weight. My second largest bass came to the boat on this one.

I was going to say the same thing

Yes- I'm glad someone brought this up... it's a part of your arsenal you need, that is often overlooked.... Some of my biggest bass ever have come on Berkley Powerworm blue fleck 10"....

I fished a small lake last spring known for smaller bass... so I traded him a big powerworm for a smaller worm... First cast his rod was bent double, and he got a 10 lb. bass nearly to the bank on a spinning rod, before his line suddenly broke.... I like them on 5/0 hooks....

I like the Paul Elias reference in the original post.Hes the one pro I would love to fish with. He doesn't do what every body else is doing , hes always doing his own thing. I could learn a lot from him. Guido would be my second choice.

I caught a couple of large bass and missed several large explosions at night on a buzzbait, on this one particular flat this year. I may have to bring the big Jelly worms out of retirement and probe deep on that flat next summer.

big fan of the luck-e-strike baby huey. great worm. it's versatile (segmented so you can break off sections as needed). it don't cost a fortune and has worked better for me than some worms that do.
