Mister Twister Hang 10 or 12” Mag worm. Gets bit a lot on Fork and I think Albert Collins had a 40 lbs bag off Rayburn on it.

Spray it with your favorite scent and it will slide through the grass more easily. wink

I think you’re right. Albert is a great fisherman.

I actually presoak all of my worms with coffee scent. But I agree!

I like the Ole Monster. I catch a lot of fish on it. Not just in the grass..

Not a huge worm but I like using Zoom big Dead ringer pegged to slither through the grass. Works great

Yamamoto 10" Cut Tail for me, I prefer a straight tail and this one has worked for me. The Zoom products are a close second that have a place in my arsenal as well.

I fish big worms year round, mostly Zoom Old Monsters in Blue Fleck, I still have some Berkley Black Shad that I really have done good on. Maybe it's because I'm so old but I fish Tex rigged worms most of the time. Just easier on the old arms and shoulders, have to admit that I finally had to go to a sit down seat. Ain't gonna quit till I quit ! Thanks for the good video. Wish you would still come fish our Thursday T's with us.

Hard to beat that Mister Twister 10" as well as the 12"- both have their days to shine on Rayburn & T Bend.

I wish you wouldn't " THROW " your fish back in the water . Seems like this is the new norm .

Andrew,
Do you care to elaborate on pre-soaking worms with coffee scent?

It’s something I’ve done for years. I just think the plastic absorbs it better. No matter the plastic. Only time I won’t presoak is flipping. The presoak makes the plastic much softer and that sometimes works against you when flipping.
