Denny Brauer won a Classic at High Rock Lake in NC upper lake dirty water on laydowns with a 4 inch BLACK tube jig texas rigged....I watched him from the water....circa 1994 or 1995? In summertime!
Great video and you are right, there is something about the black worm and the light tail that they really like. There was a lake that I grew up on and that's the color pattern that the bass liked the most. Fun times!! Thanks Randy for sharing this with us!!
Back in the 90's when I lived a few miles from Lake Lanier In GA. The Zoom Finesse worm was the #1 way to catch Spotted Bass there. We fished them on small Jig Heads, Light Carolina rigs and Texas Rigged. Still works today, my best friend has lived on Lake Lanier for 35 years and he is a Golfer and not much into fishing but likes it. A long time ago I set him up with a spinning rod and zoom finesse worms and still today he catches fish on that same set up from his dock. Every time I visit him I have to put on new line and get him restocked. He repays me with Steak Dinners and he tells me his fish stories...
Ya know you outta write a book. Would be so cool to be able to reference these tips in a book before a fishing trip. Check the weather Check the water conditions Check Randy's book Pack the tackle box.
Black and chartreuse is a killer color here in southeast Louisiana on the northwest shore of the lake back in. The black water in the cypress swamp around the ditches, drains, slews, and boostays. Then the black with a dark blue tail in the 4’ to 10’ of water. Get back to the brown sandy color water the ZOOM has a color Blue Moccasin. We call a river color. It’s like a plum that clear and not so dark. With blue flake 2’ to 3’ maybe 4’ of visibility in the rivers it’s on. With color
Little tip to help catch your 1st worm bass...use a heavier weight bullet weight....you get the feel of using the worm easier...Also, will help u feel the bite....After some catches & getting the feel of wormin' u can go to a lighter sinker if needed...lighter sinker gives the worm a little more lifelike action, but is harder to get the feel
How do you decide between a trick worm and roboworm? I use both for drop shots and shaky heads with about equal success. They seem pretty interchangeable.
I grew up finesse fishing with Texas rigged worms. Not because I knew what it was or that it was my favorite. Worms, hooks and weights were cheap and i was a poor kid!
I’m not the best finesse angler. Thanks Randy for the knowledge !
Experience is the only truth in education. Thanks Randy

Thanks 🙏🏻 Randy for the tips, and sharing your knowledge with us… I appreciate what you’re doing
Randy, I really enjoy your videos. They are loaded with good stuff.
Great stuff. Very helpful
C’ON RANDY I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT VIDEO WHEN IT WAS PULLD DOWN
Really good alternative to the Zoom finesse is a 5in Slider. I do really like the Fat Finesse for neko rigging in the spring.
I still haven’t caught a fish on a plastic worm. I really needed this video. Thank you kindly! Great video.

@@andybales7318 thank you kindly. I will be trying this tomorrow morning.
Great video! Exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks Randyt.

Great tips thanks RANDY
I have great success with a black trick worm in clear water also
I think it’s funny how everyone runs you down but they copy your itinerary
Killer tip man!

What do you do when those water conditions are less than 1 ft visibly preferably like 3 inches.
Gotta be the ohio river 😂
Maybe 1 thing you didn't mention is the Zoom swamp crawler. Almost akin to the roboworm is the Zoom swamp crawler . What say you?
ZOOM 4” MEATHEAD
That flys under everyone’s radar
This is off topic but what happened to the old school jig?
He stopped makin em but had said I think he was eventually gonna start makin again. That was a good while back
Thanks
Randy you don’t use a ZOOM 4” MEATHEAD that’s a spot killer
