Rob, Tim Coleman wrote several articles back in the late 80s and early 90s about using freshwater rubber worms for Stripers. I tried it with big black worms back in the early 90s just as we came out of the moratorium.
One night my then partner and I absolutely crushed fish at Watch Hill Light. Nothing huge because there just weren't any huge fish then. Minimum size was 36", then 34" but we each had 30 or 40 fish in the 20 to 30" range on very light tackle. We rigged then "Texas style with the hook buried in the body of the worm to make them weedless.I am sure it would still work.
