Quick take

7.5 inch soft plastic worms with ribbon tails and laminate two-color designs that originated the modern soft plastic worm.

The 7.5-inch pearl worm comes in an 18-count bag with a ribbed front and a ribbon tail. Texas, Carolina and shaky-head rigs are common setups for it, along with flipping and pitching. Pearl adds a pale option to the color range of this 1977 design.

  • Bass fishing with Carolina rigs and Texas rigs
  • Panfish presentations with small jigs
  • Anglers seeking classic tested worm designs

Skip if

  • You prefer straight tail worms

Strengths

  • Ribbon tail provides extra swimming action and vibration
  • Laminate two-color design improves visibility to bass
