It's called 'The Eliminator Worm' among other names. Have tied a few and bass
like them. Instructions for one version at
http://reel-time.com/pattern/hanley/eliminator/eliminator.asp . I use one
strand of regular chenille and one strand of crystal chenille. Imagine the
color combos! Add a conehead, weedguard, and a piece of foam folded in at the
back and you can walk this worm thru weeds. I've even experimented with a pig
and jig by putting this tail at the back of a Calcasieu Pig Boat.
Enjoy

Yeah, several inches (up to 8"). I used to use braided shoe-laces in ligh
brown. Worked very well, but there's lots of things you could use. You must
remove any weird smells from it, or they won't eat it. You could scent it with
lure scents, but that's 'cheating'. Or you could 'store' them in an old worm
can, full of the worm dirt and smell. That's 'natural seasoning' and it's OK.

Chuck,
I was always successful back in Georgia when fishing right after a rainstorm.
I used worm patterns and fished around the docks and deadfalls. The bigger
the worm, the better. Tie a long chamois-leather or ultra-chennille worm with
a cone-head and strip-sink it around the docks. Biiiiig bass.

Well Folks.. Maybe the Bama fishing machine (ME) can get RE oiled soon
LOL...We had 5 inches of rain in the past 48 hours. The temps have gone cooler
(50's nights and 70's days). I went by the watershed and the level was already
up by a foot or more. So.................. I hope this will cool the water, get
the oxygen levels back up in the water and give the fish their appetite
back...We'll find out (Hopefully) by the weekend when the water sorta settles
and stabilizes....In the past 5 weeks, I've only been fishing twice and only
caught about 6 bluegills per trip so I'm having Fishing DT's here LOL, Chuck
