Sometimes in the middle of winter when you really wish you could dig up a couple of earth
worms and your wife won't let you grow them in a cupboard inside your own house, you've
got to resort to plastic worms. Well if you're going to use a plastic worm, at least make
it attractive. This particular one is a fluorescent one. Granted we don't see a lot of fluorescent
worms in nature, but it does attract attention. It's a scented and what's called naturalized.
It's ribbed, it's action is very natural. And we can hook that on to a standard snell
hook either through the head, quite simply, like that. Or we can loop it through a couple
of times if we're going to have a, we're going to try to play some bigger fish. You can,
actually, swim this thing on by running the hook right up through the center of it and
allowing the snell of the hook to climb up the shank, allow the head of the worm to climb
up the shank as you feed the hook end into the tail. And there you have a little bit
less action, but a lot better grip. So, you've got a couple different methods of hooking
a worm on and you can make adjustments anywhere in between.
