What's your favorite color of Zoom "trick worm" ? 2024


fishing user avatarJim McC reply : 

I want to buy some Zoom trick worms, and want to get a couple proven colors. Please just give one or two of your favorite colors. Also, is it best to use natural(darker) colors for clear water and clear days? And brighter colors for stained water and cloudy days? Thanks.


fishing user avatarGatorbassman reply : 

I have four favorites

Redbug

Grasshopper

Watermelon Gold

Greenpumpkin


fishing user avatarwisturkeyhunter reply : 

Black is the one I've used most and done good with. Any darker color would get the job done though.


fishing user avatarJim McC reply : 

Thanks guys. What about my other 2 questions?


fishing user avatarbchlr reply : 

black, motor oil, watermelon seed, red and some others occasionally, depending on water condition.

edit: for your other q's, I would say the lighter the water, the lighter the bait. black: stained water and cloudy weather


fishing user avatarDaniel My Brother reply : 

I get by with 2 colors:  

Black in muddy water

Watermelon red flake in clear


fishing user avatarCRFisher reply : 

watermelon green i think (i tossed the original bag) got me my personal best.  


fishing user avatarCatt reply : 

Watermelon Neon

Merthiolate

Bubble Gum

Big Texan

Cinnamon Pepper Neon/June Bug Laminated (Camouflage)


fishing user avatarBassyak reply : 

Black has produced the most and biggest fish for me, even in the clear waters of Washington lakes and on sunny days.  They haven't gone for any other colors up here for some reason.  I also like the *** Floaters.  They're very similar in size and shape, but will float tail up when rigged weightless on the Mustad 2/0 wide gap hooks I use.   Very tantalizing.  But the color selection is limited.


fishing user avatarTexas_Bass_Man reply : 

Junebug hands down


fishing user avatarSJex reply : 

Watermelon Red Flake.


fishing user avatarB-o-b reply :

Junebug

Bubble gum

Watermelon red flake


fishing user avatarmdmaynard reply : 

I have had the best luck using "bruised Banana" and Watermelon green.

What I have heard and found to be true is the darker the water the darker the worm, the lighter the water, the lighter the worm.


fishing user avataravid reply : 

I only use trick worms one way.  I fish them weightless and swim them  in the back of coves.  For this application I only use one color.  Merthiolate.   Makes no never mind to me what the water clarity is.  The bass will see this bait from 50 feet away and do the "torpedo" thing to smash it.  Totally cool.


fishing user avatarJim McC reply : 

Thanks guys. So far black has the most votes at 4, and Watermelon red flake is second with 3.


fishing user avatargravyfor3 reply : 

bruised banana ;)


fishing user avatarStill a Bigbuckifan reply : 

Watermelon candy or mardi gras


fishing user avatarMALTESE FALCON reply : 

For clear water I use Watermelon/Red, and for stained water I use Candy Bug.

fishing user avatarnjpaulc reply : 

Green pumpkin red flake, Castiac choice for stained water, pumpkin red flake, watermelon blue (or red or green or gold) flake, or plum for clearer water.  I try to match the stain, or the background I'm fishing.  Another theory is to match the bottom, because that's what the natural forage will do.


fishing user avatarbassdocktor reply : 

Watermelon Seed. I've used it in clear and staind water with success. After that I would guess black is my next best. But definitely watermelon seed gets my vote.


fishing user avatarnjbasser reply : 

bubble gum

bubble gum

bubble gum

other bright colors

bubble gum

8-)


fishing user avatarWayne P. reply : 

My favorite color is whatever the tackle store has in stock when I need some. The fish don't have a favorite color, they will take any color in any water conditions. Its all about the presentation, not the color.


fishing user avatarfrogtog reply : 

Watermelon seed

Tomato

Junebug

Green Pumpkin

In that order ;)


fishing user avatarCookieMonst3r reply : 

Stained Water: Brusied Banana

Clear Water: Watermelon Seed


fishing user avatarMattStrykul reply : 

Black

June Bug

;)


fishing user avatarfishbear reply : 

Watermelon w/red flake

Pumpkin

June Bug.

Methiolate when using as a jerk bait or during spawn.


fishing user avatarFishing Doug reply : 

I have watermelon/red flake, Junebug, and bubble gum in my tackle bag......my experience is that color really doesn't matter. If they are hitting the Trick Worm, they will hit any of the 3 colors. My fishing partner and I have a couple spots that we can almost always get bit with the Trick Worm on a split shot rig. Multiple times we have been using very different colors at the same time and both of us pulling in fish.

fishing user avatarstinkfist reply : 

I've done well with Junebug and watermelon green. All the water I fish is pretty clear.

Watermelon Red Flake was the color I happened to pick up, it has worked in both water conditions.
