You think using a small jig with a worm for a trailer like a 7" power worm, would do to good?

I use a shortened 7" PW as a swim jig trailer with good results.  I generally like a 4" grub for this, but when your deck is full of torn worms, you can recycle them.

Add a Brush Hog as trailer, now that 's what a call a really big bait.

This works, my dad stuck his PB on a 3/4 oz jig with a Brush Hog as a trailer, I gave him a hard time until he got his PB and the big fish of the night.

I use 7" salt craws as jig trailers quite a bit.  That keeps most of the dinks away.

My favorite summer-time trailer.

There 's Raul, Moses and the Compadre at La Pólvora, Raul grabs a 3/4 oz jig, hooks a Brush Hog as a trailer.

Moses.- "Do they bite THAT thing ?"  :-?

Compadre.- "Isn 't it a bit LARGE ?"

Raul.- Yup, they do bite THIS thing Moses, my dear compadre that 's exactly the idea.  

Raul makes a beeutiful underarm cast to a reely fishy lookin spot, the bait flies through the air under a branch, lands and begins to sink, touches bottom, Raul lifts the rod and hops the bait a couple of times and a few minutes later Raul lands a 6 pounder.

To answer your original question, absolutely. A 7" Power Worm, or a 3X flaoting worm on a small jighead are soemthing I have tied on all the time. One of my go-to rigs, for any time of the year.

I always have a blue/black chatter bait with a blue gambler crawdad tied on. I flip, pitch, slow roll, and burn it back to the boat. This combo has produced more BIG fish than any other in my boat by far including this one......

8.61 lbs and got a big fish check from her.
