Hi, Matt, It’s my opinion, (and I’m pleased as punch) that someone is using my favorite lure. Depending upon which type of hook design you have, will determine how to hang your worm on the the hook. There is the “wacky” style, where you just stick the hook through the middle of the worm, and run the barb back up into the worm. If you happen to have a pkg. of Mister Twister “Keeper” hooks, put the straight barb directly into the nose of the worm (all the way to the eye), then swing the hook up alongside of the worm (in order to see where to insert the hook into the worm), and now adjust the angle accordingly, and insert the business end of the hook up into the worm, when you can just feel the barb below the surface, you’re done.If you need it, I can send you pics of what the different set-ups look like. and the different items that I use to keep me lightweight & mobile, when I’m out hunting Ol’ Bucketmouth. Reach me thru the Yahoo! Contacts.Goodluck & Good fishing

Berkley “Powerbait” plastic’s have better color’s and action.”Gulp” has better scent and “fish-holding” power.I use both. I use alot of the “Gulp” Minnow-Grub in black & green. And the Black “finesse” worm.And the Berkley Powerbait in many, many, various color’s and styles. I would say that Powerbait is #1. “Gulp” comes in a close 2nd,(because they don’t have the color’s/action PB has). (“Gulp” would be #1 in salt-water, IMHO.) 7″ Motor-oil PB worms work excellent in super-clear water. Rigg them “weightless” with a small 1/2 inch piece of “wire” (like a cut-up used coat-hanger sized wire), buried in the back of the tail, for extra weight.Here’s a good tip for Berkley PB: Get a cheapy wire brush and “poke” your worm before rigging it. This causes the “scent” to disperse easier. I quickly “comb” my PB worms before rigging and have noticed some improvement in catches. In fact, when PB first came on the market, a company sold a sharp wire “Brush” to do this exact thing. Renegade has good color’s but next to no “scent”. IMHO, I think you will find your catch ratio improve if you use PB worms!Goldenfeather: I watched a Berkley rep at a fishing expo “willingly” EAT a piece of Gulp plastic’s. YUCK! (lol)

use your prepared catfish baits or chunks of FRESH shad, sucker or carp. use some of the bluegills live for flatheads.sounds to me like you found an excellent spot. a hole with wood in it? that’s all a big cat asks for.save your chicken livers for bullheads in your local pond. they would wash off the hook in short order.use a sliding egg sinker just heavy enough to keep it on the bottom with a short leader.cats are not hook shy. hook your chunk bait once through leaving the point and most of the hook exposed using a big circle hook, size 5/0 to 8/0. you don’t set the hook with these. just let the cat tighten up the line and hook himself. 99% of the time circle hooks hook them right in the corner of the jaw.late afternoon, evening, all night long with a cattin’ buddy or two… that’s my idea of heaven.won’t even bother askin’ why a bass angler is chasin’ cats. l could just ask myself and come up with just as good of an answer. got two heavens with bass AND cats.you have the major hole right below the spillway. you also have a secondary hole just a short ways downstream of that one. always a second hole below a dam. l guess there would have to be enough current to make the second wash-out but most cases they are usually there.those holes below a dam are usually the deepest spots along your rivers. those are the spots to fish for cats in the dead of winter. you won’t believe how many cats stack up in the holes below dams in frigid weather.either up or downstream, you can also find good spots in other log jams or in the outside of a bend in a river. these holes in the bends are doubly attractive when they’re filled with trees. remember the short leaders, and you can also use a float with some splitshot in a small stream. keep the bait just inches above the bottom as it drifts through a likely spot.

I love the plastics. Here are my favorites- Zoom Finesse Worm in June bug, red bug or watermelon green.–Zoom speed worm in the Paddle tail version in the same colors and red shad also. Zoom Baby Brush hog in the same colors and cotton candy colors also. And a Yum Dinger in those colors and a yellow and black swirl works great with it.

I would have to a say 1/2 oz spinner bait with with double willow blades and a white/chartreuse skirt is the most versatile and productive artificial of the lures to use on Largemouth as well, as smallmouth certain times of the year, Berkley works well for me too, I use the 7″ power worm alot during the spring and berkley also has a good line of tube baits that work great for skipping underneath docks. I would also learn how to fish a Carolina rig and a dropshot, I dont know how many time I have been saved by a Carolina rig in tournaments, it is an old method but can produce some monsters. To really get alot of info on bass fishing join B.A.S.S. they have probably the best magazine on bass fishing tips and techniques; as well as a wealth of informational videos on the web and even a blog for any fishing related question could have.

to rig it weedless you push the pointed barbed tip of a large 1, 2 0r 3 ought worm hook through the dead center tip (head) in about a half an inch angling its entry toward the side making sure you go out the side on half inch down from the top and pull it through the worm all the way to where the knot is all that shows on top then you hold the shank of the hook and squeeze the worm back up by bending it slightly trying to get the tip to wedge into the body of the bait one half an inch further down than where the tip is hanging in line (the reason) is you want the worm absolutely straight no kinks bends and or waves to its hanging on the line body but if you don’t know how (and with my directions who could) go to the library and look up bass fishing there. they have it all and explaining to you the intricacy of the task without a visual is darn near impossible. But fish it like an eel don’t let it settle to the bottom and eels wiggle side to side cast upstream or up current and use your rod tip to very precisely (while retrieving it) wiggle the tip back and forth (not up and down)
