brwnbass Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 I found a good deal on ebay for the plum 10" bull worm. $7.30 for 2 packs. Country Sportsman has them. That being said, i ordered some last week & got them yesterday. Damn these things are HUGE. I throw a big worm alot, but these things are waaay bigger than anything else i use. Gonna have to get some hooks to go with them. What size is recommend for these beasts? Im thinking a 7/0 ewg (which i hate) or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountainman Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 I throw a 12" worm & occasionally a 15" worm in the summer. You can get by with a 7/0 on the 10-12" worm, but an 11/0 works well on the 15-16" worms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronzebackhuntr Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I’ve always used a 5/0 on 10” power worms with very few missed fish. I think I’m gonna try out the 7/0 to see how it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
31Airborne Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I like the 7/0 J-hooks for big worms. Owner and Trokar both make heavy wire versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I’m gonna try out the 7/0 to see how it does. I throw a 10 power worm & zoom ol monster alot. This thing is quite a bit larger than that. A power worm is flat on 2 sides, its wide but not thick. I use a 5/0 for the power worm with no problem. I ordered some 7/0 gamakatsu hybrid g finesse worm hooks, we'll see how it goes.
