Hi Harry,

I tend to go for a swept shank hook like kama 911 or tubertini 808. i then thread half the worm up and around the swept shank so that you can not see the hook and then only expose the point of the hook,

The key is to make the bait look as natural as you can Image

Spot on budgie Image

you can also use a prestons pr 21 hook.......all three hook patterns are perfect for chopped worm. You can use them in slightly bigger sizes aswell ie 16s and the worm will sit perfectly on the hook harry911

Maggots turn into flies.

Death to all flies and baby flies :D
