I know how a lot of people fish a weightless trick worm or fluke working it like a jerkbait, but some people say they fish all kinds of soft plastics weightless. So what are some other ways y'all fish weightless plastics? Is it mostly all jerking them on topwater or do y'all very slowly drag them on bottom like a weighted t-rig?

Allow it to slowly sink, maybe move and twitch it a few times. Reel up and cast it again. Got some current let her drift. You can also dead stick it. It depends on the plastic, but this is generally what I do.

These new lines are so tough I can't break them. I was picking up 400lb machine parts by hand. I'm no light weight. The line cuts my skin before it breaks. The 6lb and 8lb Excalibur silver thread copolymer line is tough line.

I never worry about line breaking.

I carry a folding scissors in every tackle box now. Small.

Cast it let it sink and ever so slightly shake it. slowly sweep the rod up and repeat. You can dead stick them too which is throwing it out there and letting it sit. I'm sure you could let them sink and rip them up really fast to try to create a reaction strike as well.

Bill this is for sure at least the 3rd post I've seen from you in the past few days that has absolutely nothing to do with the subject or question the op is talking about in the least. You doing ok over there?

This pretty much sums it up for me also...

Over the last 3 yrs I done great with Bass Assassin's Tapout worm, it's like a Trick worm but fatter.

I fish it on the bottom like a weighted t-rig

i fish big worms (Uptons Custom Baits ) weightless on an Owner oversize worm hook in 7/0 , i fish it over the tops of submerged grass in up to 15 ft. of water , slowly twitching it across the top of the grass trying not to let it get snagged .

I usually just let them sink. If the bait doesn't get hit on the way down, I start working the bait like it was weighted. Just slower.

Cast it let it sink and ever so slightly shake it. slowly sweep the rod up and repeat. You can dead stick them too which is throwing it out there and letting it sit. I'm sure you could let them sink and rip them up really fast to try to create a reaction strike as well.

If you go to the roadwarriors post he mentions he talks about line test. Sorry for the confusion.
