Custom Built 5" Patriot Worm (24 baits)
The 5” Patriot Worm: The ultimate soft plastic worm engineered to deliver the subtle appeal of a finesse presentation with the robust profile needed to entice truly massive bass. This isn't just another shaky head worm; it's designed to be your go-to bait when the bite gets tough, yet quality fish are still the target.
At 5 inches, the Patriot Worm strikes a perfect balance. Its thicker body profile sets it apart, providing increased bulk and water displacement compared to traditional finesse worms. This beefier design doesn't compromise its subtle action; instead, it offers a more substantial meal that appeals to larger, more aggressive fish while still maintaining the irresistible characteristics of a finesse bait. This combination makes it effective when you need to offer a compact yet noticeable profile in clearer water or on heavily pressured fisheries.
The Patriot Worm's specialized plastic blend provides a soft, yet resilient texture that allows for maximum quivering and undulation with minimal rod input. This inherent "fish-holding" quality means bass will mouth the bait longer, giving you ample time to feel the bite and execute a solid hookset.
Optimized for the Shaky Head, Built for Big Bites:
- Shaky Head Dominance: The Patriot Worm is designed to shine on a shaky head jig. Its thicker body helps it stand upright on the bottom, creating a lifelike, "nose-down" presentation that perfectly mimics a foraging or defensive worm. The subtle shimmy and shake of its tail, even when at rest, is irresistible to bass, triggering reaction strikes from even the most lethargic fish.
- Ideal for Pressure Situations: When fronts push through, water is clear, or fishing pressure is high, the Patriot Worm delivers. Its refined action and appealing profile provide the subtle enticement needed to coax bites from wary fish, while its increased bulk reassures you that you're still targeting quality bass.
