Okay.....I need to find someone who makes a plastic worm similar in shape and action similar to these worms but bigger like 8 inches ......in the watermellon white color

Like quite similar to a slug-go, you might want to take a look at those!

V& M makes a pork pin worm very close to that.They used to be called the needle worm years ago, I have caught alot of fish with the old 8" needle worm in black/yellow swirl.Under water the worm changed color, the yellow turned greennish in color. P N J

i use those worms for my dropshot rigs! they work really good,i like them alot. pnj covered your question,but i would try those worms out if i were you.

Watermelon/White? You mean like Wm. back and Wh. belly? That isn't shown on the color chart on your post...BUT...the ZOOM Trick worm, 7", is available in a Baby Bass; Clear Wm (green) with flake on the back and a pearl tummy. It's not so thick in the forward body, however. The ZOOM Finesse, at 4.75 " is available in the same flavor.
Also, Kinami (Yamamoto's kid's brand) makes the "Senko" type, in 4" and 5" in a green back and white belly and the YUM Dinger has similar coloration.
I guess this really isn't quite what you were hoping for, but sometimes faith in a given color or combination can override a desire for a certain shape.

bpaca, next time im at the store, ill see if there are any on the racks like that. if their are, ill pick some up and mold them.
Ive done a bit of custom work for folks and generally get pretty good results.
I havent coated my new molds (15 inch curl tail worm), 4 inch slugo, etc yet, but once i do ill post pics. they came out well.
Id be happy to try to make a mold for you if you want. that one doesnt look terribly hard. id just need some originals.
Thanks

I cant always get the custom work done, as some baits are just really really hard with the process I use. In which case I can always send it off site for custom molding. This bait is a very simple design though and would be pretty easy.

Check out V&M Super Needle Worm - 8" worm and color #30??? https://www.fishingworld.com/Brannan...&SKU=VM8NEEDLE

Calcutta also makes a 7" Needle Worm as well but not the right color - Check out http://www.softbaits.com/lures.cfm?d...%22&m=Calcutta

chompers makes one just like your asking for, but after viewing the bps catalog, I found at least half dozen other brands that are 8 inchers

BPACA · 12-26-06, 04:16 PM

You really needed to duplicate the spot you were fishing in another part of the lake. I doubt that upsizing your bait would have made a difference. Move to another area that has the same pattern you were catching them on and see if the size of the fish changes. I beleive that you cannot fish for average fish when fishing a tournament, you have to boat better than average fish and to do that you have to keep moving until you find better than average fish.That was the most difficult thing I had to learn once I started tournament fishing. I hope this helps you. P N J

Umm Mr. PNJ sir. Could you explain that to some of the boaters I've been paired with. It sure would mean a lot to me
