similar to cut tails?

Featured Replies

has anyone fished the luck e strike razor worm? they look similar to the kinami cut tails (great bait trigged weightless on a 1/0ewg), but ive never seen them in person. are they durable? heavy?

is there anything else similar to the cut tails?

This past year I got some pretty good cut tail knock offs. The Bass Pro house brand. There were good color choices (all I needed in Missouri) they were pretty sturdy and they had good action.

The Lucky Strike razor worms are more like Brewer slider worms, only a little thinner and straighter.  I've got an assortment of razor worms, but they haven't seen the water for a couple of seasons for me.

was there something you didnt like about them?

Basically my issue with razor worms is that they aren't slider worms. I think if you're looking for a straight 4" worm, the slider worm is a better worm. It is a little thicker and stays on the hook better and lasts longer.  The tougher plastic seems to have a little more subtle action.

Also, I find I'm not fishing 4" worms all that much. The past few seasons my finesse fishing approach has changed. These days I'm much more likely to throw a wacky jig with a 5" to 7" worm. (current favorite is the Strike King elaz-tech worm, because it lasts so long) A second choice would be a shakey head with a Zoom trick worm or a power bait worm in a similar size.

So, I don't think the razor worms are bad, I'm just not using them right now.

gotcha. thanks.  :)

try a western weenie. cut/straight tails are what i go to as far as worms these days. the yamamoto cut tails are my favorite along with the western weenie. bass pro cut tails dont have the bulk that i think a bass appreciates

Take a Rage Thumper and cut the tail on the dotted line.  Instant cut tail.  :)
