Dried Lug Worms Surf Bait (3 Pack) FREE Shipping

An OK bait, not as durable as live blood worms. Not easy to hook, must use a thin wire; I use a 4 owner mosquito or Gamakatsu on worm while dry. More difficult for me to put on the hook when wet, too slippery. Once wet, durability doesn't last long, easy for perch to just rip off the hook if they don't take the whole bait. Have not yet caught any larger species that would usually just take the whole bait, like croaker, corbina, guitar fish, etc. But then again, haven't caught any of the latter species yet this season on any other baits either. So, for me, the jury is still out on the dried lugs so far.

Each package had a wide spectrum of quality worms. I felt that the three packs really only provided 50-60% of decent worms that were useable. Wasn’t sure if they were “seconds” or if that was industry standard. The plump worms were very effective, the scrawny ones not so much.

A little goes along way with these lug worms. Thread about an inch on your hook and pinch off the rest. They do get soft really fast when they get wet, but still stay on hook. I would recommend these for So Calif surf fishing.
