Really like the Zoom Ol' Monster and the LFT 10" Worm. I fish the Berkley and Culprit 10" as well.

Charlie worms is back in biz. They where gone for a while but there up and running again. New owner and new location, but the same great products. http://charliesworms.com/

Wow.Here's a story

15-20 years ago I fell in love with the charlie's "chugo's" salt &pepper color

bought about 20 bags(10 in each) at k-mart when we still had one for $3.39 ea.

used them conservatively

just when I thought I was going low on supply- around 2006- I hunted the makers down with the address on the package and dialing 411

I reached them and talked to a lady said they weren't doing much of anyhing plastic wise, just selling bait

I told here how fond I was of these things and how I really caught tons of fish (1 chugo would catch from 8-10 fish before rendered useless)

she told me to hang on as she looked around a bit- she found a big plastic bag with hundreds in it-and other big bags with bulk amounts of other colors.MISSED OPPURTUNITY 1: Her offer was this: 100 chugos for 20 bucks :respect-059: well I didn't have a credit card at that time :cry4: so I got a good address and said I would send a money order. never did.

MISSED OPPURTUNITY 2: For $150 she'd sell me a mold, since I didn't know the inner workings of plastic worm making I passed on it :occasion5:

I guess I didn't act on any of this because after we hung up I intensely searched my hoarded amount of plastics and found several packages and other colors as well

still have 4-5 bags somewhere

just went to the link you supplied(thanks for that)

new owners new location

now I'm really heartbroken...new price...and new amount...less

oh well thats how it goes.

I like the Kicker Fish Hightail Ribbon Tail 11" worm for a more power approch. If I want something a little more subtle then I usually go with a zoom u-tail.

Well I ended up ordering some 7.5" culprit and 4" power worms. with all the different replies I had to get both.

I go with the Zoom U - Tail, in black, green pumpkin, or watermelonseed.

Sadly, it's a bait I don't throw much any more. IDK why, it always produced. When I did use them a lot a 7.5" Red Shad Culprit and 7.5" Blue fleck Berkley power worms were usually what I used.

I haven't bought Culprits in years, got a bag the other day, they are not the same bait. They seem to be much thinner and lighter as I remembered them. Not a negative or positive comment, just an observation.

For me i have to go with the Netbait C-mac and the T-mac. I fish big worms after the spawn. I fish 10 to 15 in. C-Mac's because have alot more tail than body! And that is what I am looking for in a ribbon tail< MORE ACTION. And I have fished them all and I love the Netbait ribbons!!!!
