It is about 10" in the mold, close to 12 stretched out.  The tail should have a good thump to it.  Let me know if you think it needs any changes.

Tight lines!

Good design. Many times with the big worms, the fish will hit the curly tail and never get the hook. This is similar in design to the old Bass Assassin worms we would throw in spawn time. BIG MOMMA!!!!!

Thanks Jim.  I think you just gave it it's name as well, Big Momma!

What about size?  8", 10" and 12"?  Should we do a 6" as well?

Thanks,

Jason

Hi Jason,

I am really looking for something like this in a 1.5 to 2" version. Can't find it. Do you think its possible. We use it to fish dropsgot and jighead for small perch.

Hi Perca,

Have you looked at the Go-Go Grub?  If you get a chance you should watch the video as well.  If you aren't sure you should try a sample bag.  It basically catches everything...  All sizes of brim (even smaller than you can eat), Bass, catfish, etc.  It measures 2" in the mold, but is close to 2.5" on the fall (stretched out).  On a jig just holding it steady it would be 2".  We basically made it this size to take a normal sized brim / crappie hook.

Let me know your thoughts.  Maybe others who have this mold can give feedback as well.

Tight lines!

You won't go wrong with the go go grub, it works awesome!  Been ripping crappie on it this last week.  If you need some samples just send me a message and I'll get you some.

I would like to see that body with a paddle tail in 12". A worm like that just won the Kentucky lake FLW tournament. They are the hot bait on the ledges right now.

Done...  That will be the easiest request I think I've had in some time.  I will get it out this week.

Thanks for the suggestion.
