I picked up some roboworms today. Never fished em but I've heard they are good.
What do you hook em with (set up) / what is the best way to fish them?
Alot of people use them in a drop shot or Shakey head.
Excellent drop shot worms. Especially when wacky rigged.
Thanks
I'll try them that way
As stated above drop shot and shakey head for sure. Did you by something like the 4 or 6 inch straight tail worm? I like the straight tail worms, fx sculpin, and alive shad on a drop shot. The fat straightail is a good bait for a shakey head as is the zipper grub.
Easily a top 3 finesse bait for me no doubt.
They can be dynamite on a TX rig, too. I fish them a LOT on Southern, clearwater lakes that way. 1/8 or 3/16 bullet weight and a 1/0 straight shank.
texas, drop shot for me.

Drop-shot wacky rig? I never thought of it, but I definitely want to give it a shot.
i don't buy into the stock. they tear apart like tissue paper and i've caught just as many fish on zoom finesse worms
I use them for split shot, I have other baits I prefer for drop shotting.
They're like senkos, you can't fish them wrong
If I can't catch anything on a straight tail or alive shad, the fish arnt there. T or C rigged, shakey, and split or drop shot is how I fish them.
All of their colors look amazing too but I always go for Aarons magic or bluegill.
They don't work. Not on a mojo rig, or a drop shot, or a shakey head for that matter. Just don't do it.
Don't over look the 7" straight tails or Zippers.

ive never caught a thing on roboworms
They're ideal on a dropshot, but I've also had good results with them on light carolina-style rigs, like split-shot and mojo.
I really only have 4 (maybe 4.5)in worms that I use for DS and shakey heads. I don't throw a lot of splitshot rigs but I imagine they would work will there too.
Try them on a jika rig. You won't be sorry but WARNING you may have sore arms!!!

Yes sir ! X2 here
I got the red and green melon and the shad color
Best shakeyhead worm out there!
I use them all the time.
Primarily on a drop shot. Also work great Texas rigged, Carolina rigged, wacky...
Aaron's Magic
Martens Madness
Margarita Mutilator
Tequila Sunrise
Green Weenie
6" and 4.5" Straight Tail for the most part.
They also happen to make a killer d**n swimbait called the EZ-Shad.
I use them for drop shotting and also split shot/mojo rig type applications. The 6" fat model is great for throwing weightless on 8 pound test line on spinning gear and fished like a fluke or senko.
I am baffled by the amount of negative responses on roboworms. Not saying anything is wrong with having that opinion, I just have had so much success on the 6 inch straight tail that it's hard for me to fathom so much dislike for these lol. However, one thing negative about them that is absolute truth is they tear up easily. I don't mind that because I catch fish with them and they are a true floating worm. I fish them primarily on a shaky head since I don't drop shot hardly, and I do pretty well. I like to use the shaky heads that have the weight not fixed to the hook, That way you get more action out of your worm. After you catch a fish you will probably have to put a drop of super glue on the head of the worm to keep it up on the keeper, and if it tears up, put it aside for when the fishing gets tough and you need a smaller presentation. Just rip the torn piece of worm off, and now you have a 3-4 inch worm. So I get multiple uses out of them. My absolute favorite color is ehlers edge. Its like a watermelon seed and a blue bottom and tail. To me, I think it looks a lot like a baby bluegill in the water. Btw, I'm not sponsored in any way by roboworm, just a weekend warrior who thinks they deserve some credit.
I like to drop shot them. Natural colors for me. I fish clearer lakes though
I only use them for my shakey head and not to often either. really soft and tear off easily.
These are the colors that I have...
Roboworm 6" Straight Tail Worm 10 count
(1) Color: New Ayu
(1) Color: Prizm Perch
(1) Color: Warmouth
Davis Baits Aaron Marten's Series Shaky Worm 6"
(1) Color: Aarons Magic
I have always liked tham and caught lots of fish on them. BUT..........they don't/didn't catch any more for me than a Zoom finesse or trick worm. And you get more worms , for less money with Zoom, so that's what I use now. Roboworm has lots of pretty colors though.....I know that's important to the sheep...........err I mean people here LOL.

Drop shot with a 3/16 ounce finesse weight. Make the leader about as long as the worm and fish em shallow.
After several months of having no success with occasionally fishing a roboworm, I finally caught fish with my last two Aaron's Magic worms. Now I have to go get more! Ha!
They are my go-to drop shot worm. I have also used them on a mojo with great success.
I use the Sculpin on a drop shot and it works pretty well. Sometimes I throw the straight tail worm that way also but I usually throw that on a shaky head.

Other baits work as well or better for me so I rarely use Roboworms anymore.
