Hi, I've always used crankbait to do my bass fishing, but this year I used some plastic worms a couple of times and had some great luck. Thanks for this info. I am going to try picking some of these worms up for my next trip!

I've always found worms give me the greatest success when I go fishing, this just reinforces my opinion of that. Cheers!
Plastic worms are great, esp if you can make them look alive and real. I recently learned about a product that helps you do just that--Recoil Rig by Secret Weapon Lures. Here's a link to their video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W3G1Age6RWg.

What happens when the fish take these plastic lures, get away and swallow them? It ends up in its stomach preventing the fish from eating and growing. It actually kills them very slowly. These fake lures must be made so that the fish can digest them. Fake plastic and rubber lures must be created to be biodegradable in the stomachs of fish and in our lakes. Just my thoughts about it.
