Just picked up some 8" and 12" Jelly worm's at BPS today in grape and blackberry.  Haven't used them before. Just wandering what your favorite ways of fishing them are. T-rig, shakey head, c-rig, etc...?

I have always T-Rigged mine and had success. I love the Jelly Worm.

I use a 6/0 EWG for the 12", but a 5/0 will do in a pinch.

Jelly worms are great oldies and still work wonders today. I Texas rig them. For the sizes you bought, go with the larger (6/0) EWG hooks, as that's a lot of plastic to get balled up in a bass's mouth!

I've used the 8" Jelly Worm since the early 70's mostly during summer/fall and at night. I always use a texas rig with a 5/0 straight shank or offset bend hook. I let the fish determine the size of the slip sinker to use depending on their mood.

I actually prefer a light weight with the large worms. My preference is the 1/8th. ounce size. Works for me.  ;)

I'm the same way. The lighter weights are my preference but I have used heavier bullet weights and had alot of success.

What size hook for the 12inch jellyworm? Also what size weight do you use texas rigging

Owner Oversize worm hook - 7/0 for the 8" and 11/0 for the 12". Best big worm hook on the market.

I T-Rig these on a light bullet (3/8oz) weight - great worm.
