Squirminator - Curved Bloodworm Red

Squirminator – Curved Bloodworm Red

The Squirminator - Curved Bloodworm Red is a variation of the proven Squirminator pattern, tied on a curved hook with a tungsten bead to deliver an irresistible, lifelike presentation. The curved hook enhances the natural undulating movement of the squirm material, perfectly imitating a bloodworm writhing through the water column. Bloodworm red is one of the most effective colors on tailwaters and stillwaters where chironomid larvae are a primary food source — and trout simply can't leave it alone.
