For me I love throwing a worm for a farm pond situation...I just read an article recently in FLW Outdoors where this guy was saying he likes throwing a shorter worm, says he doesn't miss as many fish by throwing a shorter worm. As for me...I like the Zoom Mag II's with a 4/0 EWG hook, no weight, just the hook...all the usual colors of Junebug, Pumpkin, Motor Oil, etc...I've had a blast at the farm pond with this set up, not sure what you have in your box but you might consider the Mag II's, they're about 9" long or so.
