+1 for downsizing your baits.

I have used 10" worms in the past, but never seemed to catch anything. I received a good piece of advice for plastics, which I still follow today.

Keep downsizing and slow your retrieve down....until they finally bite it.

I fish 10lb or 8lb green Izor line, with 2-3" Reapers, up to 5" Flukes and Senko's on an 18" leader, tied with a high quality, small bearing swivel which adds just enough weight to help the bait slowly sink. Seems to work great.

Good luck!
