Favorite texas rig worms

[Smalleyez]

What are your favorite plastic worms for T-rigs?

It's been years since I've really focused on T-rigged worms. Back in the day I used Rat Tails and others. (can't remember it's been so long..) Now I just mainly use wacky rigged Senkos, but I'd like to get back to some good ol' Texas rigged worming.

Junebug- 10" powerworm

I did some internet research and I was a little surprised to read all of the success with 10" worms! I used to throw 5" and 6" and thought that 7" worms were a little big. Feel like a little like Rip Van Winkle.

Muskyhunter, Senkos seem to be the rage.

With worm weight - Culprit Tassel Tail worm

No weight - Bass Pro Shops' 6" Stiko (Senko knockoff)

[Shimano-Or-Nothing]

Roboworm ST and Fat ST in 6" and 7" (4/0 Roboworm rebarb hooks are the best for these, imo)
Zoom Ole Monsters and Mag II's

Zoom Ole Monster, Culprit Original, Charlie's Worms, and Berkley Powerworms Ribbontail have all been my favorites at one time or another. . My biggest criticism of old school plastic worms is that some designs twist line more than others. I like rigging with the ribbontail pointed down(others may disagree). I like to use a bobber stop placed loosely above my bullet sinker(half a cm or so). This allows the sinker to slide downward a bit and the line will twist less than if the sinker is pegged tightly to the worm. If the water temp is over 68 in Tennessee I have a ten inch plastic worm rigged on at least one rod, night or day.

Senkos weightless won't twist line. When using a weight, a paddle-tail worm is said to reduce line twist.

I read that you should rig a ribbon-tail with the tail up?

[rbredefe]

Tail up or tail down. Both ways catch fish. It is a matter of personal preference. I just feel with the worms that I use rigging the tail down reduces line twist.

Lake Fork Baby Ring Fry works at every lake I fish. Hands down my favorite. I also like the Berkley Chiggar Craw, especially around rock.

I fished Tequila Sunrise powerworms on the back half of a hopeless tourney afternoon last week, and had a blast.
I hadn't fished a Tex worm in years. So much fun setting a Tex rig with with a lighter rod, reel down and set for the fences instead of suckerpunching like a flipping jig. Riot.
