What worms do you like for shaky head

Featured Replies

Thinking about finessing a little more as summer progresses and haven't really put enough effort towards the Shaky Head technique.

I've heard a little about Zoom's and Strike King Shaky Head worms.

What do you guys prefer?

    GYCB Pro Senko in Blk/Bl.

    My cousin caught a 7 and 8 pounder in the same week using this worm.

I personally don't like the SK elaztech/3x shakey worms, more trouble than they are worth, extremely stretchy and really hard to get onto a holder or spring.  I really like the finesse worms, zoom finesse worms and trickworms, GYCB kut tail worms, and berkley power shakey worms.  you can really use anything you want on a shakey rig.

Holy crap.

Zoom Shakey Head Worms are awesome (excellent for dropshotting as well), as are Zoom Finesse Worms.

Robo Worms 41/2"&  6" Fat Worms.

I like and use *** too, but the fix for the SK is really simple, and well worth the effort.

Heat a needle and insert it about three quarters of an inch into the middle of the head.

Problem of getting them onto a keeper solved.

I've caught plenty of fish on them recently, and have yet to see the slightest tear in them.  

I've wacky rigged them, and have yet to see them tear that way.  

They are tough, flexible, durable, and they catch fish.  In the long run, I find them to be the most economical, simply because they outlast all the others I've tried by a longshot.

The only ones I have used that are "out of service" are those that got irretrievably hung up on the bottom with the jig head.

The only sign they have caught fish is the scuffs on the surface from the raspy mouths of bass.  None have been torn off or tossed off.

I prefer the Roboworm Fat Straight Tail, Zoom Shakey Tail & the Reaction Innovations Flirt.

E2 Needle worm. Check out the video of it. The action is awesome!

I keep seeing Zoom Trick and Finesse worms get mentioned a lot.

I think I have a couple bags of Zoom Finesse in WaterMelon or maybe Pumpkin.

I also bought a few Spot Removers w/ the Spring style Keeper late last year but haven't used 'em yet.

That's incredible. Guaranteed, if I was a bass I'd go after that!

Wow that is amazing action.  Might have to try that out.  I need to get some of the Megastrike ShakE2 but dick's and gander mountain here dont carry them.  Been wanting to try them out though.

I only use 7" strike king 3x finesse worms. They float up better than any other ones Ive tried. I think I get more strikes because of this.

5" Berkley Shaky worms, and the 4.5" Slim Shaky worms are my favorites right now, but I also have/like/used Roboworms, Zoom finesse, and Zoom trick worms.

I like the the Netbait finesse worm, zoom finesse and have been catching some really quality fish on zoom mag finesse worm. I use a custom made Spot Remover by Buckeye with all 3.

zoom finesse worms or zoom shaky head worms... i tried a 7" anaconda on a shaky head one time but didnt have any luck. I would stick with finesse type worms.

powerbaits and gulps in 5" and 7"  always get the bite for me in tuff conditions....
