RT,

Trying the curved worm has been something that I have tried to avoid. I was not sure that it would look natural enough, and I was afraid that the spinning might cause some line twist (even with a barrel swivel). I will give it a try anyway. Is the quickest way to make the "curve" to thread the worm so that the CURVE of the hook is what exits the worm versus the end of the SHANK of the hook exiting the worm?

As far as colors go, I have only tried pink so far. I just bought some natural, light brown worms today. Any other favorites for you? I read that others like Merthiolate.
