Delong Lures 8" Bass Witch Weedless Worm for Bass & Pike — Firetiger

Overview

The Delong Lures 8 inch Bass Witch weedless worm is a pre rigged soft plastic lure designed to fish near heavy cover. With a long heritage dating back to 1946, these hand poured lures are scented with anise and built with weedless hooks molded in. This design offers a snag resistant option that can reach bass in ponds, lakes, and rivers while delivering lifelike movement and a believable profile that appeals to two of freshwater anglers most common targets, bass and even pike on occasion. The color lineup includes firetiger, green pumpkin, watermelon, red bug, and black with blue flek, plus a bright blue tail to catch light and flash as you retrieve.

In practice, the Bass Witch works as a versatile pre rigged worm that can be fished in many ways. The ridges along the body create varied water displacement, producing different kicking motions as you vary the retrieve speed. The lure sinks slowly and holds its position when paused, making it a solid option for slow rolling along the bottom or bouncing it across weed edges. By keeping the tackle simple with two molded in hooks and 15 lb braided line, you can focus on your cadence and line control rather than rigging while offering a strong hook set when a bass bites.

How to fish it

Cast toward structure and edges where fish commonly hide. Tie a swivel if needed and let the lure land on the bottom. Use quick jerks to bounce it upward, then pause as it sinks back down. It can stand up like a jig or drop shot and then slowly tilt over to tempt cautious bites.

Color and usage tips

Firetiger shines in murky water and low light, while green pumpkin and watermelon work well in clearer water. Black with blue flek is a solid choice for night sessions or stained water. Consider trying multiple colors over a trip to discover what the fish respond to on a given day.
