Attention Roboworm Users

I live in Gilbert AZ, and out here drop-shotting is really a essential technique for catching our highly pressured fish.
What I would like to do is trade some of our local color roboworms for someone else's local color roboworms. Out here we have a few baits shops that commission Roboworm to make AZ specific colors.

For example, available locally from Roboworm are the following colors:
1- Salt River Craw- red w fuschia flake/mustard stripe/ green bottom
2- Arizona Dragonfly- Transparent blue with a pearlish quality
3- Pleasant Special- Designed for Lake Pleasant Amber with gold flake
4- Pleasant Special 2- Same as above with red/green flake


1,3, and 4 are available in 4.5" and 6" straight tail. 2 is available only in 4.5" straight tail.


Thank you in advance,
Kevin Mcnichols

These AZ colors were commissioned by Waterdog Willy's here in Phoenix and subsequently picked up by other LOCAL tackle shops. I tried this approach several years ago but Roboworm will only sell the special orders to the stores that ordered them or the other stores that will agree to a large order. I don't remember the exact figure but it was not practical to order that many worms.

My friend, Chris Love worked out a deal with someone through Basswest and received a "perris punisher" and the "army" worm, which both proved effective here in the valley. By using that rationale I was hoping that some of our local colors here would be useful to other regions as well. That way we could help each other out to catch a few extra fish here and there.

We got them from Robo but had to order 100 packs. It was hard to get it approved but we did it. I don't worm fish much but I hear that the Pleasant special 1&2 work great on our waters too. It might be worth a try for you worm throwers.

The salt river craw in 6" is a killer at Canyon Lake at night.

I saw at least some of those on the "new colors" display at Angler's Marine. Definitely the dragonfly color, and I'm pretty sure about the others, as well.
