We would also like to know where you caught them and what bait was used. If you want to tell us about the color and size of the bait, that would be useful also.

comments: Hey John! Here are the pics that I posted on the Bassholes that you asked me to mail you. These spearworms just always seem to produce quality bites when nothing else will! Keep up the great work!

comments: WE WON!
We won the “Mercury Cup Lowe AM Series” after 3 tournaments we accomplished 578 points out of 600, and were awarded the 2010 Championship.
On the tournament things got really rough. On Saturday we were able to gather the quota (5 fish with a minimum of 12 inches ), but nothing extraordinary an average of 556 grams per fish. Leaving us on the 17th place, we were very sad but on Sunday, we were able to gather a better quota and finished on the 4th place. With amount of points gathered, on both days we accomplished a 10th place. With the sum of the 3 tournaments we finished first and champions of the series.
Again what worked was finesse fishing with spear worms on Drop shot. I’m attaching some picture of the last Tournament:

comments: Brian really loves fishing. He caught wind of your spear worms at the Toyota Texas Bass Tournament this year, held on Lake Conroe . He just loves those worms and tells everyone how great they are. He spoke with a couple of pro anglers at the tournament that turned him onto them. I have used them as well and the action in the water is outstanding. I have attached a picture of the fish he called to tell you about. Here is a little more info on that…

comments: This is a nickname some of the locals
gave the lake when they are not catching fish. Well I took care of that
yesterday, some of the shots came out ok the big fish shot the pearl
lure blended with the bass on one shot. We will try for a bigger fish
and a better shot. All bass were on the minda lures and did show some
of the shore guys the lures. They did show some interest and I caught
five fish on the same 4 inch minda until it came off.I will post fish
reports on westernbass, cabassin and fishrap and sent shots to western
outdoor news and local paper. I forgot to tell you I made the california
B.A.S.S. Federation Nation 12 man state team and we will fishing
our western divisional at Lake Martinez in Arizona in May 2010.This
place looks like a flipping lake. This is my forth year in a row
and I won the State Divisionals for california in 07-08 and went
to the B.A.S.S. Federation Nation Championship in Florida. I missed
fishing the Bass Master Classic by 6 places. Just to give you a little
history of me.

comments: The first picture isn't to good because I was fishing alone at a golf course and had to take the picture myself, but I caught it texas rigged without a weight. The second picture was at Clear Lake, CA pitching it with a half ounce weight. Very durable plastics!!!

comments: Recently I was fishing in my home state of Wyoming, a basically bassless state. I tied on a Aarons Martens Scrounger with a Minda Lures 4 in Spear worm in Spinach color. I had done this also in Texas where I fished a few small tournaments with the BigBassFun Tournaments (http://www.castorblast.com). I have found this combination to be absolutely deadly and without a doubt a real winner. This will forever be one of my favorite go-to baits!!
Everytime I have tied this on I have caught fish. Maybe not the biggest but I can at least boat em! I would like to thank Aaron Martens Company for making half of a outstanding bait for me. Also John Guerinwith Minda Lures and Mattstone and Mrs Mattstone for giving me my first Scroungers.

comments: John, we live in Austin & ordered spear worms around Christmas. We are at Lake Fork & Joe caught this fish on a kiwi spear worm this morning. I caught a 2.9 on a black neon spear worm about an hour later.
