[QUOTE="TNReb, post: 5412095, member: 676"] Not to be a turd or sound like a smart aleck... but braid doesn't "float" - it just stays on the surface because it isn't dense enough to break the surface tension. If you pull braid under the water, it won't float back to the top. That characteristic is likely what you were feeling. The worm doesn't pull the braid down through the water as easily as it will fluoro - so it's more difficult to feel the whacky rigged worm with no weight on it. If you like fishing it with straight braid, consider trying a neko rig. Stick a nail weight in the head of your worm. It'll help it sink a little better. You don't even have to go buy nail weights. Use a little nails or screws or something if you want to try it. Weighted whacky rig heads can help too if you're fishing deeper. [/QUOTE]
