Zoom Finesse Soft Plastic Worms Review - A Great Largemouth Bass Fishing Bait
Author:

When the bass fishing gets tough and bass quit biting your spinnerbaits, jerkbaits, crankbaits, and jigs what do you do? Bust out your finesse gear and go save the day!
Often as fishermen, and especially weekend fishermen, we are forced to fish in less than ideal conditions for bass. After a cold front, or during dropping water conditions, or the day after a major tournament. These are all conditions that will turn the bite off for our favorite fish. You can either keep throwing your big baits and hope that you catch a fish, or adjust to the conditions and flat out tear 'em up!
The adjustment I'm talking about is called finesse fishing. Fishing with smaller, more subtle lures, in combination with fishing slower often triggers strikes on fish that are under pressure.
There are several different ways to finesse fish. Drop shot, split shot, shakey head, weightless rig. These are all finesse techniques that require one thing: A finesse worm.
Not all finesse worms are created equal. There are an awful lot of smaller worms on the market to choose from today. How do you choose a bait?
When I've determined that finesse fishing is the way to catch the bass, I want a worm that DOESN'T have a lot of action. I want a worm that has a small, unintimidating profile. I want a worm that looks natural in the water. The Zoom Finesse Plastic Worm fits the bill for me in these conditions.
 
The Zoom finesse worm is a 4 ¾", small profile worm that is infused with a scent that Zoom calls "Better Than Salt". The worm has neutral buoyancy, which is hard to find in today's market. The worm neither floats, nor sinks. The worm has a slim profile, and a straight tail, which makes it very unitimidating for bass. The Zoom Finesse worm is an excellent worm for tough conditions, due to its unique features.
The Zoom Finesse worm is a great worm to catch a lot of fish on, but don't you be thinking it's just for smaller fish. I have caught an 11-pound largemouth on one of these little worms during tough conditions. The Zoom Finesse worm is available in almost 50 colors to match any fishing situation from crystal clear water, to muddy mucky water.
If you like CATCHING fish during tough conditions, try the Zoom Finesse worm! The Finesse worm is available online at www.BassPro.com.
Chucks Tips:
When fishing clear water, try using more natural colors such as Smoke Shad. When fishing dirty water, use brighter colors such as Chartreuse Pepper.
If you need to cover a lot of water to catch fish with a finesse worm, use a heavy jighead. If you have located the fish on one spot, use a weightless rig and a "Deadstick" retrieve to catch bigger fish.
Remember there is no wrong way to fish a finesse worm, don't be afraid to try something different.
