Trick Worm vs Finesse Worm

Featured Replies

  • Super User

I fish both , but fish the trick worm more. I dont do well with the magnum finesse worms for some reason.

Ive done good with the trick worms., especially june bug, watermelon red and watermelon seed colors. I generally catch smaller fish with the finesse worm

I fish trick worms with a 3/0 hook , wide gap or straight shank  , and either weightless or with a bb shot. I go to a 2/0 with finesse worms...

Neither for me.

 

I catch too many little fish and would never target more. Don't care a thing about 

getting skunked either. I know the next Good'un is just a cast away and it might be

a Big'un, too!

Anyone putting them on a skirted jig?

 

I've used the regular trick worm cut down to half. I usually use the tail end and slit it in half leaving about an inch or so uncut to go onto the jig.

 

Havent used this on a full size jig but its done alright as far as numbers go on booyah baby boo jigs.

I noticed that the trick worm had a great action on a stand-up jig head I have a skirted micro finesse jig I thought might be good to rig it on

I don't really fish the finesse worm opting for a Berkley bottom hopper and a roboworm instead. Now the trick worm I love...in fact I throw it weightless almost as much as a senko. 

I haven't put one on a jig but using worms as jig trailers is something I'd like to experiment with this coming season.

Not on a skirted jig, but I use the tail section of a trick worm on a hair jig the majority of the time I throw one.  When the nose of one gets torn up, I just toss it in a ziploc with others and use them as trailers and for drop shotting.

Your splitting the worm in half lengthwise? To give it 2 tails?
