That makes it exceptional for power dropshotting (aka “Bubba Shotting,” once again turning the finesse game on its ear) for pressured bass that won’t eat something that gets in their faces and antagonizes them more violently. Xcite Baits MaXimus Worm: Unlike those listed above, this giant trick worm provides no meaningful tail action.The tail, which literally looks like a curl tail that got cut short, pushes a little bit of water without being overbearing, and the tapered body moves seductively with only the smallest amount of current or angler-imparted action. Gary Yamamoto 10-inch Kut Tail Worm: This one is a little more finessey than the first three, but at 10 inches it’s still a big presence.Strike King 10-inch Rage Tail Anaconda: When you want to move a little bit more water or catch the attention of the fish in dirty water or from a distance, this ridged scythe tail gets the job done.13 Big Squirm 10-inch Ribbon Tail: A newer comer to the party, this bait has micro ribbing evocative of the infamous Senko and provides a similarly subtle wiggle.There’s a 12-incher too, but they come five to a pack for a buck more than eight 10-inchers, so I’m not sure that the juice is worth the squeeze. Durable, proven scent, and a big old ribbontail that flutters on the way down with the slightest bit of manipulation or even while sitting on the bottom in slight current.
