ribbon tail vs a curly tail? 

Meaning one big curl (curly tail) vs multiple curls (ribbon tail)?

 

I caught a fish that might still be my PB, I can't remember now if it was 7#6 or 6#7, old phone had it, on a ribbon tail (according to bassmaster description of the juice worm, which contradicts my assumption of that sets them apart).

 

Havoc Juice worm in something like a more ing dawn just at dusk, last cast and I'm paddling back in the dark with no light - didnt expect to be out that late. 

 

Really screwed myself on my last cast by yanking my hook into a log... and then the log started moving. Had a small heart attack that night, never felt so alive before that.

 

I kept the 2 remaining juice worms the past 5 years (hook rash and all) with plans to try to make a mold for myself and pour some... idk if I'll ever have a set up to melt plastics and do that, but I'm hopeful. 

 

So whats really the difference between curly and ribbon?

 

So far the votes seem to be 3/o for 7in and 4/o or 5/o for 10 in... more votes?

Ribbon tail is longer and thinner, with a more subtle action, curly tail has a more pronounced movement. Think willow leaf vs Colorado spinner blades. 

Here's a couple of vids for you!
