The two best artificial lures that exist for catching LMB are a rubber worm and a pig-n-jig. I'd put the pig-n-jig at the top of that short list.[/quote]

That's it, the name escaped me at the time, but that's exactly what I was talking about, the pig and jig using the Strike King craws, they look so realistic, I catch a ton of bass on them.
My biggest problem I have with rubber worms, I get tons of hits, even more with the rubber salamanders, but I have to let them have it for just a little longer before I set the hook or they just have a grip on the tail, inevitably I get too many deep hooks that are terminal for the fish and most of my bass I catch and release so I have shied away from using rubber worms as much.

All the really good ideas I've ever had came to me while I was milking a cow.
