Zoom Trick Worm-Pack of 20 (Junebug Red, 6.75-Inch)

Great Results with a now Classic Lure
These worms have excellent action for catching both small mouth and large mouth bass. They come in a range of colors that either allow matching the forage the bass are feeding upon in relatively clear water or else darker colors that will stand out in stained water. At 20 per bag, they are a good value compared to many other brands on the market. Although sometimes referred to as "floating worms," rest assured that they do not float even if placed in water without the weight of a hook.For large mouth bass, I have the best results fishing this lure on a split shot rig using a 7 foot Medium Power, Fast Action Daiwa spinning rod paired with a Daiwa Ballistic LT 2500 D-XH spining reel. The main line on the reel is 30 pound test MaxCuatro Power Pro Braid with a 15 inch to 18 inch leader of either 15 pound test P-Line Tactical Fluorcarbon when abrasion resistance is paramount or 12 to 16 pound test Stren MagnaThin Nylon monofilament when buoyancy is more critical. To avoid line twist, I attach the main line to the leader using a size 10 Spro Power swivel. To avoid pinching and thereby weakening the more delicate leader, I crimp the 3/0 size split shot to the less fragile braid mainline about 3 to 4 inches above the swivel, which avoids the braid and leader lines wrapping around the split shot when casting, flipping, or pitching the lure. To prevent the split shot from slipping along the main line, I use bobber stoppers, sized for the main line, both above and below the weight. The best hook I've found is a Gamakatsu 2/0 offset, but not wide gap, with an O'Shaugnessy bend for sufficient strength not to bend out and a gauge of wire that will minimize damage to such thin plastic worms. These hooks also have extremely sharp and very durable points that do not require a hard hook set ... just reel up the slack upon getting a strike and follow up with a gentle hook set. After the lure hits the water, I allow about 20 to 30 seconds or more depending on depth and how aggressively the bass are feeding before beginning to very slowly take up the slack and drag the worm toward the boat. If there is no pick up by a bass at that point, I slowly reel in the worm with a jerking action that often triggers a strike.For small mouth bass, I have obtained my best results with a simpler presentation. I omit the split shot and retrieve the lure as if it were a soft jerk bait similar to the jerking action imparted as describe above. Depending on how deep I want to go, I use no weight at all, or go with a small or large tungsten cone head weight of the sort used in fly tying, pegging it to the eye of the hook and counting down until it reaches the appropriate depth.BTW: I experiment with the count-down times, determining appropriate weights by observing the lure's behavior in the crystal clear water of my swimming pool, making notes as needed reminders to bring to the lake.

These worms always bring the big bite!!
These grape zoom worms are almost impossible to find in my area and I was so pleased to have found these available for order!! Quality is great as always and I couldn't be happier.They work so well in the waters of Arkansas that no one has them in stock anywhere. These worms are very life-like and graceful while in motion under water. They are very durable too! If kept moist and stored properly they last forever!! The price could of been a little better in my opinion but well worth the tiny extra especially delivered right to my tackle box. I have used these for years and years and I will continue to recommend them to all my fishing friends. I hope this helps

Great Southern Color for Bass!
I got this lure and use it with my new KastKing baitcaster set up. Works and moves great. Looks like the major brand name lures. Caught some nice large mouth bass already on this!!! 5 Stars!

This worm on a baitcasting rod/reel combo proves full of action when you find a good spot. Only reason I prefer a baitcaster or a spinning on using this, because of the accuracy and ease of casting/retrieving. These worms work great when the water is fairly clear and you can almost spot them coming in for the swipe for a better chance at setting the hook. Good buy at a good price.

Zoom fan!!!
Great fast shipping. Exactly what I ordered. Wish they still sold the older natural blue I used to fish with. Zoom trick worms are my favorite Shakey, Texas rigged or weightless with a 3/0 hook.

Works
The only reason I bought it here is because i couldnt find it in the local stores. Seem like it's way cheaper to buy it locally.Works good for bass when fishing around trees.

Worked well in MN this August.
We made our own spinner lures out of Little Joe's and some really old, nasty popperheads, and we stuck half of one of these on it. My son would use nothing else. Well work the money - I am sure I got more like 30 in my bag.

Best soft plastic worm ever
My all time favourite soft plastic worms! Highly recommended. I have got over 200 bass on this lure Texas rigged in one summer! The red watermelon is the best color in my opinion.
