big nighcrawler. Either half or a whole crawler on a single hook. Keep the bait straight on the hook. If you bulk it up, they don't think it looks tight. Straight bait on the hook. Keep the hook inside the worm down to the ring of the worm the expose the point with one or two inch tail of worm it normally best but sometimes they like the whole worm. big worms do better, skinny the worms with no bulk just suck. Get good bait that the fish want.
