texasbass1 Posted September 19, 2005 Report Share Posted September 19, 2005 The reaper or zipper worm? If it is the zipper worm, I have been using them most of the year and they work good on a EWG 2/0 hook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojo Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 The head is almost 3/8" thick. Should work well on a jighead, lots of action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigZ Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 I designed that bait for Bob. It should work fine for a jighead, but make sure it doesn't have a big nasty barbed collar or it will rip the plastic. A light wire ballhead or darter jig would be your best bet.The head on that bait tapers to a point and it is designed for a 1/0 Owner or gama EWG hook and a split shot. The tail floats almost vertical, so I don't see why a jig wouldn't be a good presentation for it. I personally use a 1/4oz mojo and 18-24" 12lb leader to fish it (and almost every other bait I fish).
