using worms on big water

[shipahoy41]

my question is are worms efective on big watter for crappie and if so how do you fish them? im mostly a troller but im trying to expand so when the wind gets to bad to troll effectively i can throw out a sock and keep fishing

When the wind is bad, or I am fishing deep water, I will sometimes go to my modified Carolina Rig tube. I will take a two inch hollow tube and insert two 6 mm solid floating fish pills in it. I insert a #4 thin wire hook into it and tie it on six pound test line. I attach this to the Carolina Rig. The tube will float perfectly horizontal and it is light enough to be quickly and easily inhaled. I will sometimes tip the hook with a Crappie nibble or a bit of Red Wiggler worm. Done deal. Get your hot sauce ready. Here is a photo of this idea.
