Good, very fragile ( like all japanese baits ) baits. Basspro has a knock off almost identical but a lot more durable.

Fragile. really?  It seemed like that chunk center portion would've made it more durable than other worms of similar size.

Absolutely Fragile, they do work, and so do trick worms....

They work...nothing exciting about them. I wacky rig them the same way as I do a senko -- thin strip of shrink tubing in the center with the hook threaded perpendicular through it. Lasts more than one fish this way...

Nothing exciting at all...keep moving, lol.

It's definitely not recommended you use them on the flick shake/wacky jigs.

 

Here's one that fell for one:

They are the most fragile soft plastic made from my experience. That said they really work when fished on the right jighead. The BPS worms are more durable and work just not as well on a tough bite.

I use em on the jackall flick shake jig head with good results...as for durability id say they a about average for a plastic that soft

THE MOST fragile?  Not really.  After a few dozen casts or a fish, I poke the hook through a fresh spot in the egg sac.  They are much more durable than GY baits, and about on par with Ragetail.  Though I hear people complain about those too.

I second this. They have strong smell impregnated into them and definitely tougher than GY baits which people spend a lot more money on. I enjoy hooking a jig head through the egg sack or use it with nail weights.

I swear every fish I catch on them jumps and I lose the worm in the process. Yamamoto baits are more durable because they are thicker while these are thin. Now I have to qualify my statement by saying I only use the 4.8" flick shake worm.

It was the thickness and density of the eggsack which caught my attention, and led me to wonder if the worm were whacky-rigged through the egg sack, that it may lend itself to some better durability. 

 

But it seems I may be wrong.

I would try a pack... Then you will know, I still prefer a trick worm, senko/ or a knock off...

I tryed them... Once..( 1 pack )

Thats ok.  Ive long been in the practice of not buying something, unless Im actually sure about it.  If does not have any extra durability, then I can simply just use a finesse worm, or similar, instead.

flick shake worm wacky rigged on a drop shot = lots of small bass

I started using them a around May of this year. If i cant get a bite i put one on a 1/16th GFinessse jighead, wacky rigged. Almost always works! I dont much care about durability as long as a bait will catch a couple fish.

I used to use them (Jackall Flick shake worms) all the time. Then I tried a finesse worm and/or trickworm on the wacky jig head, and caught just as many fish. The Jackall's are nothing special IMHO, that is, unless you think they are.

I always keep multiple packs in my pack. These are one of my go to baits. I will fish them weightless in small ponds and use a small wacky jig head on choppier waters. I use the bluegill color the most. These won't catch big bass consistently but will give you numbers even on the toughest days.

But of course they are special, I have a confession to make, I never in my more than 3 decades of bass fishing caught a single fish wacky rigging a worm on a jighead until Jackall came to the rescue with their crooked worms and their "special" super secret rigging method..... ;)
