Everyone has a favorite way of using waxies. I happen to like tipping a 1/80 oz .kiptail jig with a wax worm.
I am also quite particular how I put a wax worm on a hook. I hook them right at the very tail tip of the worm, then with a slight tug I roll the worm a bit between my fingers and hook it again through the body. This helps a little when there are bait stealing dinks in the area.
Just yesterday I was on an agressive bite with large gills. In that case I just hooked the tip of the tail once to get the movement that turns them on.
Two waxies tip hooked brought the very largest to hand.
I also use a slip float to keep the jig at the depth that is working best for me that day.
Sorry, no working knowledge on the maggots.Not readily available here local. Mike
