Quick take

Eight 5 inch soft plastic worms with a slow fall and PowerBait scent that attracts bass.

Best for

  • Bass fishing in ponds and lakes
  • Wacky, Texas and drop-shot rigs
  • Versatile presentations for various water clarity

Skip if

  • You need a fast-sinking worm; these fall slowly
  • You want a finesse worm for light line

Strengths

  • PowerBait scent formula attracts bass by taste as well as sight
  • Classic stick worm profile works in any season
  • Slow falling action works for suspended bass

Trade-offs

  • Eight-packs are consumed quickly with multiple rigging styles
  • Scent attracts bass at distance; visibility close-up matters less
  • The classic profile does not mimic a specific forage

About this type

A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.

Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.

Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
