Manns Auger Tail worms

[airborne_angler]

Anyone know these worms very well? I have read all kinds of stories of how these worms are excellent and have been listed in the 10 best list for Bass catching lures.

What is so special about these worms? Whats the best way to rig them for a successful fishing outing?

Anyone have any first hand accounts of success when using these?

Are these the same as the Jelly Worms? If not,whats the big deal on those?

By parts.

1.- I know them extremely well, been fishing Augertails since the 80 's

2.- The stories you hear are true, add me to those saying they are outstanding.

3.- What 's special:

a) short body, very long tail ( a little bit more than half of the worm is tail

b ) the C curve shape of the tail ath the beginning of it wiggles like the tail on a grub

c ) the worm tail always tries to return to it 's shape when at rest so it whips back

d ) the thin part of the tail is bouyant and very soft so it wiggles easily and stands up

4.- There 's no such thing as the best way to rig them for success, rig them anyway you want, given the case that your rig is the adequate one for those circumstances.

5.- I 've caught literally hundreds of fish with them throughout the years

6.- No they are not the same as Jelly Worms

7.- The big deal about them is that they work.

I have caught a bunch of fish on them. I fished them Texas style. They are an excellent bait. For what ever reason I have got away from them but seeing this post reminded me that I have several bags of 100 somewhere that I need to dig out. I just have way to much stuff. The tail has a twist & is thin & moves with very little water movement.

I purchased them but never really tried them yet.  But i have had awesome success with there plastic dragon flies which they discontinued.

I agree with Raul.

My favorite version was when they came treated with FS-454. The later version had the small pack of FS-454 that had to be self applied.

Black Grape is color I use/used the most
