Big Worms For Summer Bass - Everything You Need To Know!
Bass love eating big worms! It doesn't matter if they're Texas-rigged, Carolina-rigged, or fished on a shaky head; bass can't resist them. Best of all, you can fish them on gear you already own! Come along as we take an in-depth look at the different styles of plastic worms and how to apply them to your bass fishing this Summer.
If you've ever stood back and looked at the worms on the wall of a tackle shop you know just how overwhelming it can be! Where do you start? Why are there so many different tails? And what are all these different colors for?! Don't worry, its really not that complicated. Even with hundreds of worms on the pegs you can narrow it down to just a handful of shapes, a couple key rigs, and a few colors. In a few short minutes you'll be prepared to throw big worms with confidence.
Below you'll find links to our favorite worms from all the different brands. We've included color recommendations for each worm and favorite rigging options as well. The links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item. We've also included links to our favorite rod/reel combos at different budgets for throwing these bigger worms.
