Hypothetically, you can only fish one "plastic worm" from here on out.
Which one do you use? If yours is picked, name another.
note the make, color, and rig.
To start, I'm gonna say a watermelon black flake weightless senko.
Gene Larew 7 ½ Salty Ring Worm Cinnamon Pepper Neon/June Bug Laminated (Camouflage)
Holy jeez just one worm? There's no way I could ever use only one! You can't go wrong with a 5" green pumpkin senko anywhere though.
WACKY ^
5 inch senko rigged weightless and weedless. Color dosen't matter as long as its dark and not to boring like plain black even though black works great.
10 inch rage tail anaconda in watermelon w/red & black on a 3/8oz tungsten texas rig on braided line. I won't buy another worm other than Anacondas (both sizes, various colors) ever again. I'm sold.
Even though I'm fairly new at this game, I've been doing well with ZOOM trick worms lately. Cought 5 yesterday on June Bug. Missed 2 and I couldn't even get a nibble on a watermelon seed senko.

8 in hand poured curly tail cinamon blue. There are several brands that make good versions. That is my #1 daytime worm.
my #1 night time worm is a 10in dark colored power worm.
if I could only use one it would be the hand pour
I would have to say a 6" big bite brush hog in the watermelon/chartruese color with a 1/4 oz tungsten weight on 17 lb 100% berkley flouro. This is my go to bait.
5" Watermelon/Blue Flaked Senko. Wacky.
5" *** (smoke blue pepper) tex-posed with a 4/0 gammy g-lock and a parasite clip.
No fair Brian, you gotta pick somthin' else, the Rage Anacondas aren't even on the market yet. :'(

5" Yum Dinger in watermelon seed. This worm has better action than any other worm I've tried, it sinks slower and better than senkos, is far more durable, and I believe the scent they use really works. I was able to catch 16 fish on one worm before it broke! It has produced for me in every water I've been to.
Any proven plastic in any proven color (natural)
(as long as it's from a company I respect)
It's not the car, it's the driver.
6" Roboworm Straight Tail (Warmouth)
Honerable Mention: 10" Berkley Power Worm (Tequilla Sunrise)

That's it in a nutshell! X2

Agreed, That's the all time top producer hands down in my book.
That 's an easy one, I learned to fish worms with straight tail worms: Mann 's 6" Jelly Worms, even though I 've got other types of worms straight tail worms have always worked for me, in other words, 80% of my worming is done with straight tail worms. After stocking heavily with Jelly Worms in the mid 80 's my inventory of them lasted until a couple of years ago, I tried Trickworms and liked them very much so now I fish with trickworms almost exclusively.
7-1/2" Culprit worm (color= black shad) hands down for me!
Ronnie
5" berkley power shakey worm in either red shad or watermelon candy... probably watermelon candy
I guess i use berkley powerworm 7.5" in tequila sunrise color the most.
But i suck as a driver fishing these worms....I don't get many bites on them.I'll gladly admit...i need help,i get the gist of fishing these worms just nothing seems to want to bite them. :-?
5" *** in watermelon chartail!
While senko's have produced for me, they just don't last long enough for me. I've found the *** gets just as many hits and it lasts a whole lot longer. I like the Yum Dinger, but the trick stick is a better deal IMO.
10'' Culprit -- Black shad
a worm that i never saw come off one of my dads rods,a creme scoundrel 6" purple glo tail,a classic.
Also have some of those manns jelly worms in black grape,blackberry,blueberry Raul!Send me a prepaid envelope and there yours free!!!
10" YUM Grape Red Flake

I second that
sometimes road conditions do matter, but well...

If I'm doing the driving it would be a trickworm.
5in Senko Black with Blue Flakes.....
It would be impossible for me to pick one, but I'll go with a Green Pumpkin Trick worm because it'll produce anyway you fish it. My favorite mid summer worm would be the 10" Berkely Ribbon tail, though I'm intriqued by the Anaconda.
QuoteNo fair Brian, you gotta pick somthin' else, the Rage Anacondas aren't even on the market yet. :'(Big O
lol. if that's the case, then I won't fish worms at all until they are ;D. Them craws work good. So that's my favorite lol
If I had to pick one----> trick worm. color? surprise me. every color I have used has produced for me.
Berkley Power Worms in just about any size, junebug, camo, black and blue rigged Texas or Carolina style. They have been very productive for years.

This is starting to sound like the Roland Martin show. ;D
Who makes the trick worm? I've never seen it.

Hands down Gary Yamamoto's 8" grub. Sure he calls it a grub, but it is just a big worm. This thing is fat and has a ridiculous amount of salt; salt content so high if you nick the bait it will turn whitish colored on the spot where you grazed it. The pumpkin (orange) with black and green flake is a secret weapon of mine...it kills! Especially in the spring.
I love/hate that dirt.
*** 7" Ripper Worm in Red Shad. I like the bulkier profile, plus they last forever.
Falcon
I'm surprised to see only one mention for Culprit....I'll double that. Their 7.5" electric blue original worm works for me when others arent producing.
GYCB "Kahuna", 6 1/2" Kut Tail

Zoom Trick Worm 6" bruised banana
black power worms used to be dynamite for me, havnt got a single fish on em this year :'( oh well, found a new love, ***, 5 in, wm. weightless tex., wacky rig with gammy 3/0 finnesse hook.
Chompers, PB and J, Sinking Stick Worm, Garlic scent makes me and the Bass hungry.
Trick worm
My choice would be a 7" Powerworm in Blue Fleck.
But....if you have never fished a Producto 4" Tournament worm on a 1/8 oz Snagless Slider you are missing out on something big. For you Slider fans, DO try this rig. The action on the fall is simply stunning. When the fish are on outside weedline and neutral in mood at best, this will pick them off. I've tried lots of other worms on the Slider and nothing comes close to these Producto's. The Snagless Slider and Producto 4" Tournament worm is a match made in heaven!
6 inch Senko Watermelon red flake, no doubt.
Quote6 inch Senko Watermelon red flake, no doubt.
Well, in an earlier post on this thread, this a question I alluded to.
Most of us consider a Senko a different class lure, a "stick bait".
If the Senko were considered a "worm", then I agree.
The 6" Senko is my all-time #1 bait.

I agree with RW about the senko being considered a "stick bait" but, I didn't want the thread to become a discussion over that.

No reason it should, sticks are entirely different and are not a worm.
