Worm Presentation For Bass Fishing

Bouncing bottom or hopping presentation:

Cast your worm out letting it hit the bottom. Retrieve your line until your line is taunt. Then raise your rod tip up slightly a few inches and let the worm hit the bottom again. Retrieve you line until your line is taunt then raise your rod tip up slightly a few inches and let your worm hit the bottom again. Repeat this procedure until your worm is completely retrieved. Then recast.

Swimming presentation:

Cast your line out with your plastic worm and allow it to hit bottom. Retrieve the worm with a smooth steady slow retrieve keeping the worm parallel with the bottom until the worm is completely retrieved.Repeat the process.

Swim and hop presentation:

This presentation is a combination of the two above or just alternating the two presentations making them one presentation. For example do the hop then the swim presentation then the hop then the swim over and over again until the worm is completely retrieved. You can mix up the presentations up even further creating your own presentation.

Another tip in casting is being methodical. For example, cast at the 9 o'clock position then retrieve, then cast at the 10 o'clock position and retrieve, then cast 11 o'clock position and retrieve.

Continue casting at 12 o'clock, 1 o'clock, 2 o'clock, and finally at 3 o'clock. You can cover more ground this way and hopefully get more strikes. You can use this technique for any lures you have. Hope This helps. Good luck fishing!!!!
