Quick take

Ten inch ribbon tail worms with ribbed bodies designed for topwater and finesse bass fishing.

Charlie's Worms 10-inch ribbon tail worms come six to a pack in Pumpkin Seed. The long tail gives bass anglers a swimming profile for topwater, weedless or Texas-rigged presentations. Rig one on a bullet weight and let it fall through the water column to reach suspended fish.

Best for

  • Large mouth and small mouth bass in lakes
  • Topwater action where larger profile attracts strikes
  • Texas rigged and weedless presentations

Skip if

  • You want a compact finesse bait
  • You fish open water only

Strengths

  • Long 10 inch size draws strikes from larger bass
  • Ribbed body creates vibration on steady retrieves
  • Curved ribbon tail produces natural swimming motion

Trade-offs

  • Large size makes topwater rigging heavy and difficult
  • Ribbed design collects weeds and debris
  • Soft plastic wears quickly on rough structure

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.
