Since all bites "weigh" the same, I like the 4.8 on their lightest head with 6-pound. You get more bites, hook more fish--and that usually grinds your partner--which we all love to do.

I used 6" roboworms to "flick-shake" or what we used to call wacky rigging, and have no shortage of fish in the boat. My buddy paid some good coin for the Jackall's but while they caught fish, he sure went through a ton of baits. When the bait tears, I simply run the hook between the sections that are torn and get another 3-4 fish off the same bait. I know those flick-shake worms have a special bend to them, but I don't think the spots at Oroville really give a crap...

cleb's right, they don't work, don't waste your time...but...if you do, the 6.8 works the best and is the easiest to throw...but, they really don't work...

the 5.8 in. Works fine; everytime. Like most soft plastic baits, they can be 1 fish wonders but there are few tricks to get more fish per bait. The O-ring trick works if you can find them that small but if Im running low, I'll use a thin 1/4 wrap of black electrical tape in the middle, then I just run the wacky jig hook thru the tape. Any more than that will affect the overall action/presentation.
