Smalls21 Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 i still use motor oil color, and electric blue worms on occasion, i believe they still have a time & place
eyedabassman Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 The Netbait C-Mac worms may have the best action for me! And they come in alot of colors. Not alot of body but alot of tail.Great on a C-rig.
pvspmo Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 I used to throw the Electric Blue Auger Tail at night all the time! I think I still have a bag of 8" in the bottom of the boat somewhere. Great topic... brings back lots of memories!
vernon Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 My dad and I used to stay at Gene's place (Shadrack Resort) six or seven times a year and happened to be there the week that he was converting the old metal shed that he used for making his salt impregnated electric blue worms. Still have a few of the very original ones in the old sandwich bags that he packaged them in. This was way before "Zip Lock" bags too. Remember the ones that you had to fold the flap over and tuck it into the little pocket on the side of the bag? Yep, those are the ones. Man, those were some great times. The "good ol'" days at their best. What ever happened to the milfoil and grass beds anyway? I can remember ripping Bagley's Balsa B's in baby bass color through that stuff and catching some dang nice fish. "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups."

1farmer Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 8" Electric Blue Larew was a hot number on LO back when we had milfoil and the water was blue. Can you even buy Tru-Turn worm hooks nowadays ? saw some at wally world last week.
Terrierman Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Grape Jelly Worms were a pond standby back when Heck was a pup.
merc1997 Bo Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 electric blue worms still catch bass for those of us that still throw them. maybe because no one else throws them is still why they catch bass year after year for me. bo willyfish 1
Members brierpointer Posted April 14, 2015 Members Posted April 14, 2015 I have an unopened package of electric blue Gene Larew salt craws still floating around. First fishing lures I ever got, and I never opened them because, hey, Grandpa had plenty in his tackle box...
willyfish Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 If you have confidence in something, chances are your gonna get bit depending on the time of year. Texas rig 7" blue worm will still catch them, it's just not the "cool thing" to throw these days.
MeatintheFreezer Posted April 15, 2015 Posted April 15, 2015 I found an old pack of electric blue kangaroo worms in a old tackle box. Anyone remember those things? They had the pocket that you could put alka seltzer, or bubble gum, or just about anything in. Remember - If at first you DO succeed, try not to act surprised & quit while you're ahead.
