Super User Darth-Baiter Posted July 4, 2021 Super User Posted July 4, 2021 I’m hoping to ready hone down my kayak tackle. Bring what works for me. The Hit-worm. I am fishless on it! I found some online an added it to my purchase. I Was so excited to try it. Hopeful even. Green pumpkin color. last week I committed to it on my drop shot. Worked a deep cove..nothing. The worm started falling apart. The texture is a bit gritty feeling and my hook does damage. I pulled off the worm ,put on my old standby and went thru the same cove. Bam, the fish turned on. I think I got three quickly. the Hit Worm is working for you? I fish it weedless, so the extra hook penetrations beat it up. It’s not a durable bait by any definition for me. I’ll try again tomorrow, but I’m keepin the standby within reach Quote
Super User FishTank Posted July 5, 2021 Super User Posted July 5, 2021 The guys I know that fish it use it on a shakey head jig and have great luck. I have several other worms I have tried for this technique and tend to like the Plasma worm from Bio Spawn. I will have to try this guy one of these days. Quote
Scott804 Posted July 5, 2021 Posted July 5, 2021 I am not a huge fan of the hitworm. Granted, I haven't fished it since I really learned the dropshot, but overall I just tend to want a bit smaller of a profile than the hitworm has. You should try the MaxScent Flatnose Minnow. Easier to get your hands on than the flatworm and still been super successful in my experience. Bought a bag to try them out and ran through the entire bag the next day. Good stuff. Quote
Super User Spankey Posted July 6, 2021 Super User Posted July 6, 2021 I’m all about Berkley plastics. I’ve been giving the MaxScent an honest try. I have had limited success with the Hit Worm. Felt real good about it which is half the battle. But I can honestly say I my case the MaxScent does nothing. I prefer the PowerBait original. I’ll continue to throw the Hit Worm as a change-up.
