Quick take
Classic 7.5-inch ribbon-tail worm with two-tone laminate color designed for panfish and trout.
This 7.5-inch ribbon-tail worm pairs a ribbed front half with a wiggling tail, so it works as a soft plastic option for anglers working a worm through cover or along the bottom. The Watermelon Red color comes in an 18-count pack, which gives you plenty of worms to rig and replace over a day of fishing. It suits anglers building a soft plastic kit who want a lively, full-length bait.

- Panfish and crappie on light rigs

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.
