I always wanted to use them, but for what ever reason I can't do it...they look like they would work well as a very subtle buzzbait or swimming worm, or just a skinny senko with a wierd tail on it!

I peg a bullet wieght on its nose. Weight size depends on amount of grass.
You want it to fall fast enough to make the tail flutter eratically.
The more flutter the better.
If the grass is thin or sporatic i will rip it back to the top so that it has the tail action, then let it fall again.
Also , sometimes i will short hop it with enough speed to make the tail flutter.

speed worm is one of my favorite worms.. texas rigged pegged with a 3\8 or 1\2 weight. I like the redbug color. Flippin and pitching in Sherman can be deadly.

Great worm for flipping, or fishing weightless on top like a buzzbait.

I rig it texas style, pegged weight but I twist it before the 'texpose' part of the rigging. Looking at the worm it has two seams on either side, I use those to see how much twist i put in it while rigging. IE initial hook through the top will have the two seems on the left and right of the point then I give it a 45 deg twist so the seams are on top and bottom then push through for the texpose part of the rigging. I feel it makes the vibration better though it puts some twist in your line. Letting the worm drop then kinda quickly jerking it up off the bottom you will feel a pronounced vibration on the up sweep, that tends to get the fish's attention I think. Just my method and 2 cents. Kinda a reaction bite from a worm or both..
