Anybody Know What Worm This Is? 2024
Catch and Grease reply :
I had probably 100 of these worms and I've been using them with lots of success and really like them, I found them in my tackle box full of pretty old stuff.
Anybody know the brand and if they are still being made?
Crestliner2008 reply :
Not sure of that particular brand, but Zoom's "Speed Worms" are close. Great on a Texas rig in thick grass.
Catch and Grease reply :
Yeah I like the speed worm but its a little thicker, I like this worm because it is skinny and has a little smaller of a profile but can still kick some water and attract bass
Fishes in trees reply :
Flip tail worm, maybe? Maybe some discontinued Gambler product. I don't know. I've seen woms that were segmented like that one before, but I can't place the name of it right now.
Catch and Grease reply :
No I don't think its a flip tail, man I've been looking and can't figure out what friggin worm this is haha
MainelyBASS reply :
Could be a Big Bite Baits Sugar Cane worm, but I would have to see what the bottom of the worm looks like (the side that's sitting on your palm).
MainelyBASS reply :
Im wrong now that I look at it closely. Sorry

Lol no problem man, I'm still looking around on websites trying to find the name haha
Catch and Grease reply :
Hmm I just looked at that sugar cane worm.... It looks pretty close to the one in my picture, might go pick a pack of them up to try out
Would still like to know what is in my picture though so I can buy more....
BadBassWV reply :
It could be one of the old cream worms.??

Maybe... I'll look into that, the stuff in the tackle box I got them out of is all in a range of 5 year old stuff all the way up to 30 years old... So this worm could have been bought a long time ago
Most of the creme stuff has the brand name on the lure doesn't it? This worm has no letters or logos on it
Catch and Grease reply :
Here is a bit better of a picture

THANK SOO MUCH to BadBassWV he helped me out by PM'ing me some stuff.... I started to suspect this was a home poured plastic and it is....
Here is a link to the mold. I looked for hours only to find It isn't a store bought lure haha

Use a Google search for "paddle tail worms" and take a look at the available images.
WRB reply :
Your worm is a production paddle tail not hand poured, the nose has a sprue.

Catch and Grease reply :
That could just be from the mold couldn't it? Why would that mean it isn't a worm made from a mold someone bought
Kevin22 reply :
The mold you linked to was not even available 5 years ago. LC just started selling them last year I believe. I used to have a mold similar to that, but the worm body was a little different.

Hmmm, really? Well then that's not it.... Ugh,
Catch and Grease reply :
Yup Kevin is correct its not even the same mold, the worm I have is 6" but that mold I thought was the same makes 7.5" worms
If it is a store bought lure I'm having a hard time trying to find a brand name...
J33wolf reply :
Maybe this?

Kevin22 reply :
That's the mold for the worm you have. But it was likely made to duplicate the worm as that company has only been around for 2 years.
Catch and Grease reply :
I'm gonna try that sugar cane worm out that was mentioned earlier, its a lot like the worm I have.

No, that worm is a lot shorter and more stubby than my worm, thanks though

I think that might be the hand pour mold we were seeing on that other sight. Not the original
Catch and Grease reply :
I think they may at one time had been sold as "zetabait ding-a-lings" but I guess that mold is then only way to get some now and I'm not about to start pouring my own plastics haha
Fish Murderer 71 reply :
Make your own mold of it, plaster of paris and a disposable storage container.
Kevin22 reply :
Start contacting different plastics pourers and see if the can get the mold.

There are two piece mold available for pouring as well that will have a sprue. I pour stick baits with a two piece plaster mold that I have to cut the tip off of after pouring. The mold he linked to its an injection mold as well.
CWB reply :
I remember years ago a company called Producto that made worms like these.
NDH Fishing reply :
Couldn't tell ya what worm that is,but there are many variations of that worm if you want to try another... But you can make a mould of that worm and create your own replicas.
