what's the best type of worm to use for a shakey head jig?

Rage Tail Lizard. I know it's not a worm, but give it a shot!

*** finesse worms

Zoom trick stick

Strike King 3x finesse

Zoom Trick worm all day

thanks guys i'll give these a shot

My favorite finesse worm is the Roboworm straight tail.  *** and zoom finesse worms are good as well

Robo Fat 4 1/2",and 6" worms.

The Big Bite Baits Squirrel Tail and the Damiki Finesse Miki worms have great action.

Powerbait shakey worm, ring fry, rage craw, and big bite bait squirrel tail worm.  Pretty much anything that will stand up and has a great fall action will work.

My vote is for the Strike King (elaZtech) finesse worm, four inch, coppertreuse color.

It will catch fish, and it will last until you lose the rig.

It will not tear.

6 1/2" GYCB Kahuna Kut Tail

My favorite creature bait is the Rage Tail Lobster

and the GYCB Flappin' Hog is a close second.

My go to shaky head worm right now is the Gambler Giggly Stick.

what's the best type of worm to use for a shakey head jig?

There 's no such thing as "the best", in practical terms almost any soft plastic bait can be rigged on a shakey head, I rig grubs, all kinds of worms and creatures.

You will hear a lot of opinions and those opinions are based mostly on whatever brand or type of worm tickles our personal fancy, choose what you like and it will work. My favorite worms for shakey head rigging are Zoom Trickworms is the conditions are right for a straight tail worm but Trickworms being my favorite doesn 't mean that I won 't rig a ribbontail worm or another thing.

I vote for the Powerbait Shakey head worm under most circumstances.  Though if the water is below 50 degrees I get more bites on the same bait in GULP, (which is about the only time I use GULP)

I also like the zoom 4" lizard on a shakey head when the fish are on beds in the spring.  Its killer.

Zoom trick worm has been good to me as well.

The Big Bite Baits Squirrel Tail and the Damiki Finesse Miki worms have great action.

These are the two I really like (though, as mentioned before, there is no such thing as the "best")

I don't know what you guys are talking about.. There is a best, and it happens to be the one I use most often. A 4" GYCB D/T grub.

Kidding about the best, just produces in the waters I fish.

My worms have been:

Berkley Shakey Worm - Camo

Strike King Finese (elaztech) 7''   - Dirt and Coppertruese

Zoom Mag Shakey Worm - Mardi Gras

I use those on:

E2 evolution shakey jigs

Strike King Football shakey jigs

VMC barbarian shakey jigs

My favorite worm is the squirrel tail worm by Big Bite Baits

Netbait 7" T-Mac in Summer Craw.

Catches fish everywhere I have used it.

Robo Fat 4 1/2",and 6" worms.
