Like TK10, the Wacky is my favorite worm.
Depending on brand, I go with the 5-5.5" length except to downsize for Spots. Nothing fancy for rigging - 8# Trilene XL tied to a #4 Octopus hook. No added weight. Medium-light 6-6 spinning rig.
If I'm working in limited clarity
Best application is weed bed edges and spot-targets like stumps but will work well when exploring points down to 20'.
It will work the whole water column with a drop rate of 2-2.5 seconds per foot. Give a very minor twitch or two every 3-4 feet of drop. A retrieve consists of a high lift of the rod tip and allow to settle again repeating above. Most bites come on initial drop.
Don't look for an attack on the thing - leave the line loose on the surface and just watch for a momentary twitch or flicker of the line.... the fish just inhaled it. Wind the tip down and give it a light to moderate pop and fish-on.
I picked my best fish off a stump 17' foot down in open water with that exact set-up.
Beauty part of the hook-up is better than 3/4 of the time the hook will be in the center upper lip or roof of its mouth. I can only remember 1x that a fish swallowed the thing.
SBG did me a solid with a heads-up for a goin-outta-business buy. Bought 15# of my fav color combo. If I'd a been there personal I'd a probably bought 50# of various colors.....but ya gotta draw the line somewheres
