I want to try using a pink worm / spin-n-glow behind a bait diver next weekend. What size is the most popular? 4" or 6"?

Thanks!

Just a quick ? regarding same thread. What brand of worms do most of you use? The ones I have purchased in the past in the 4" size seem to be very thin and difficult to thread without splitting.

In clear water we use the Bass pro shops "floater" bubble gum pencil worms and cut them down to the desired length, usually 4" + or-. They are pretty slender, thus having a smaller profile, but still impart good action. When the water gets some color we go with the 6" power bait.

I typically use 4" Headhunter worms.

Bob is right on with his advice. This past weekend we caught fish using the 4" pink worms in low clear water and then switched over to the 6" worm the next day when the river was rising and getting colored.
