I’m hoping to ready hone down my kayak tackle.  Bring what works for me. 
 

The Hit-worm. I am fishless on it!  I found some online an added it to my purchase. I Was so excited to try it. Hopeful even. Green pumpkin color. 
 

last week I committed to it on my drop shot.   Worked a deep cove..nothing. The worm started falling apart. The texture is a bit gritty feeling and my hook does damage. I pulled off the worm ,put on my old standby and went thru the same cove. Bam, the fish turned on.  I think I got three quickly. 
 

the Hit Worm is working for you?  I fish it weedless, so the extra hook penetrations beat it up. It’s not a durable bait by any definition for me. I’ll try again tomorrow, but I’m keepin the standby within reach :)

The guys I know that fish it use it on a shakey head jig and have great luck.  I have several other worms I have tried for this technique and tend to like the Plasma worm from Bio Spawn. I will have to try this guy one of these days.

I am not a huge fan of the hitworm. Granted, I haven't fished it since I really learned the dropshot, but overall I just tend to want a bit smaller of a profile than the hitworm has. You should try the MaxScent Flatnose Minnow. Easier to get your hands on than the flatworm and still been super successful in my experience. Bought a bag to try them out and ran through the entire bag the next day. Good stuff.

I’m all about Berkley plastics. I’ve been giving the MaxScent an honest try. I have had limited success with the Hit Worm. Felt real good about it which is half the battle. But I can honestly say I my case the MaxScent does nothing. I prefer the PowerBait original. I’ll continue to throw the Hit Worm as a change-up.
