Anybody Know What Worm This Is?

I had probably 100 of these worms and I've been using them with lots of success and really like them, I found them in my tackle box full of pretty old stuff.

Anybody know the brand and if they are still being made?

Not sure of that particular brand, but Zoom's "Speed Worms" are close. Great on a Texas rig in thick grass.

Yeah I like the speed worm but its a little thicker, I like this worm because it is skinny and has a little smaller of a profile but can still kick some water and attract bass

Flip tail worm, maybe?  Maybe some discontinued Gambler product.  I don't know.  I've seen woms that were segmented like that one before, but I can't place the name of it right now.

No I don't think its a flip tail, man I've been looking and can't figure out what friggin worm this is haha

Could be a Big Bite Baits Sugar Cane worm, but I would have to see what the bottom of the worm looks like (the side that's sitting on your palm).

Hmm I just looked at that sugar cane worm.... It looks pretty close to the one in my picture, might go pick a pack of them up to try out

Would still like to know what is in my picture though so I can buy more....

It could be one of the old cream worms.??

Maybe... I'll look into that, the stuff in the tackle box I got them out of is all in a range of 5 year old stuff all the way up to 30 years old... So this worm could have been bought a long time ago

Most of the creme stuff has the brand name on the lure doesn't it? This worm has no letters or logos on it

THANK SOO MUCH to BadBassWV he helped me out by PM'ing me some stuff.... I started to suspect this was a home poured plastic and it is....

Here is a link to the mold. I looked for hours only to find It isn't a store bought lure haha

Use a Google search for "paddle tail worms" and take a look at the available images. 

  • Super User

Your worm is a production paddle tail not hand poured, the nose has a sprue.

That could just be from the mold couldn't it? Why would that mean it isn't a worm made from a mold someone bought

The mold you linked to was not even available 5 years ago. LC just started selling them last year I believe. I used to have a mold similar to that, but the worm body was a little different.

Yup Kevin is correct its not even the same mold, the worm I have is 6" but that mold I thought was the same makes 7.5" worms

If it is a store bought lure I'm having a hard time trying to find a brand name...

That's the mold for the worm you have. But it was likely made to duplicate the worm as that company has only been around for 2 years.

No, that worm is a lot shorter and more stubby than my worm, thanks though
