most useful worm type 2024
wordty reply :
what type worm do you get the most use out of (fore example - 5 inch senko, ole monster, Berkley 7 inch worm, trick worm, etc) ...one that you are able to use in more conditions than others...for example, you can use it in different types of water, different times of year, different structure, etc
Darren. reply :
4" Bass Pro Stik-O
buzzed bait reply :
9" Super T Mac worms by Netbait. they're dynamite in the warmer months and can be cut down to size for a smaller presentation too...
Catt reply :
Straight Tail. 
kikstand454 reply :
Trick worm.
All year, almost all presentations.
Raul reply :
It used to be Mann´s 6-8" Jelly Worm the worm I fished probably 70% of the time, but as Mann´s became harder for me to get here in Mexico I ended up changing it for Zoom´s Trickworm, so for me the most useful worm type is a straight tail 6-8" inch worm ( the Trickworm is 6.5" ), after that the classic 7.5" Culprit ribbontail is my second choice.

I second this. Weightless is best for me. Carolina, splitshot, wacky, weighted T rig. It does it all. If you start off presenting it a certain way (I usually start weightless like a jerkbait when it's warm) and they don't want it you just need to slow down and adjust with the same bait. If they won't chase, I'll just let it sink and drag it ever so slowly. That will usually get some interest, usually on the fall. Sometimes wacky will get them more into it. And it's just an inherently good bait for Carolina rigs.
Hurricane reply :
5 inch Senko. .. Black/Blue being my favorite color..
Mike L reply :
Rage Cut R. Think of it as a Senko with a rudder.
Rig it one way and the rudder with keep the tail up as you swim it, turn it around and the tail will point down. Add to that the tails action...Well it's become my #1 choice for all conditions in shallow or mid depth water.

primetime reply :
Rubber Worms......I probably fish a ribbon tail worm the most and like the 6" size since most guys use 7.5" and I also like a 12" Ribbon since most people use a 10". I actually like to use the old school twister tails or J tails as we call them, and I will experiment depending on the activity level of the fish.
.I use straight tails and stick baits on most trips as well, and the Rage cut'r as mentioned above never seems to be the wrong bait. It seems to always send out good vibes like the Swim Senko. I tried one last year for first time and it is a worm or bait that I could pick as my "one lure" as long as I have some weights and hooks to modify it, but that worm will catch fish as a swimbait, wakebait, finesse worm, but I love pitching it and slow rolling it back....Cut Tail worms were created I believe when the fish didn't want a ribbon tail so they clipped off most of the ribbon and you had the cut Tail worm. Rage stepped it up with a better tail for action. I remember as a kid watching guys bite tails off of culprits in colder weather leaving just a small flange, I still do it at times. ...I am sure someone could explain if that is correct?
roadwarrior reply :
Bottom contact: Senko & Kut Tail
Moving: Rage Tail Cut-R
camman reply :
5" senko....all you need
smalljaw67 reply :
The plain old straight tail worm, it works in warm water and cold water, when the fish are active and inactive. I can Texas rig it, C-Rig it, fish it on a drop shot, shaky head or on a jig head with exposed hook, it can be used in every way.

I remember these for sale in my grandfather's general store. He also had boots, hardware, pistols, ammo, feed and gas.
My dad was still making these with two Aberdeen hooks when the Crème worm went away (around here) out of Mann's Jelly worms until the offset shank (Texas rig) worm hook came on the scene. That limited the gut hooks.

Master Bait'r reply :
I gotta choose one?!??
Man, that's no fun. Uptons, Lunker City, Zoom, Robo, Zman... I mean I could just go on and on. They each have great products that have their place but you don't always want a floater, sinker, a fattie or a whippy worm... To just limit yourself to one would be a travesty. I realize it's just trying to be helpful and give you places to look but all the "pick one" threads drive me up the wall haha
