6 inch straight tail in Aarons Magic typically.

Is that your number one shakey head bait or just something you rotate in?

I usually rotate among a few though shakeyhead fishing isn't a primary technique for me. The Robowrom Shakin worms are also good for a thicker profile. The Gary Yamamoto Pro Senko is good for clear water or pressured fish. Also the Zoom finesse and trick worms work well too.

You can even try craws, stick baits, and various craw and beaver style baits though what I listed above are my favorites.

I have been using tricks worms almost exclusively and want to try something new. I have had great success with Roboworma on drop shots so thought there may be some that are good for shakey heads.

The 2 I noted above would be best if you are focusing exclusively on Roboworms. The Shakin Worm is thicker, heavier, and has a ribbed body and a bigger profile.

+1 ... All great comments by Kickerfish1 - use what he suggests . Your greens & browns are good in clear to moderately stained water for above brands of worms - for more deeply stained and / or overcast conditions your darker purples , blues and blacks often work better .

I used to use 4.5" & 6" Roboworms exclusively on drop shots, don't know why I never tried them rigged any other way.  This past summer I tried a 6" Aarons Magic on a T-rig with a 1/8 oz tungsten weight and it was the final piece of a pattern puzzle.  Weather conditions stayed the same for about a month & I absolutely slayed them, including the 8 lb. pig in my avatar photo.  They would hit it on the drop, they would pick it up the bottom & they would hold on to it for a long time.

I have found some killer combos using megastrike shakey heads as they always land upright no matter how you throw them.  pair a megastrike 1/4 oz to 1/2 oz green pumpkin shakey head with your favorite green pumpikin colored craw style bait .

No. 

 

I use Zoom trick worms.

 

But there are no rules for any presentation.

 

Use any baits, sizes and colors you want.

Roboworms are ideal for shaky heads.  They float, though the head of the worm is salt impregnated.  You get that tail up presentation.  Jiggle the head, and the tail flaps down and back up.

6 inch straight tail in Aarons Magic typically.

What he said. Or the Fat version.

Roboworms are great shakey-head baits. 6 inch works best, I prefer the fat version color oxblood light red flake or morning dawn.

agreed with the fat part i typically use a aarons pro magic or margarita mutilator

I've had the issue that they are too thin to get really attached to the head. I usually buy the screw in jig head. 

 

As someone mentioned ahead of me, putting a ragecraw like bait on one works really well for me.

Those are good colors too anything with purple in it seems to work for me!

 

Same here, no matter how I'm using them, or the conditions I always end up getting the best results out of the dark purple. I'd have to look at the bag for the name, but its basically black with a purple accents.  Black Grape maybe?  idk
