Big worms for big fish — without the snags
The 9″ Weedless KILR Worm is designed for anglers who want to fish big plastic worms in places other baits can’t go. Its three-hook weedless rig is hand-tied and molded directly into the worm, allowing you to fish confidently around cover while maintaining a high hook-up rate.
This bait is slightly more popular than the standard rigged version for one reason — it’s easier to fish in real-world conditions.
How to fish the 9″ Weedless KILR Worm
This worm is incredibly versatile and effective year-round:
-
Spring: Work it slowly along the bottom
-
Summer: Fish it faster as a jerk bait
-
Deeper water: Add a split shot or bullet weight 8–16 inches up the line
-
Shallow cover: Fish it weightless around weeds and structure
The ability to adjust speed and depth makes this one of the most adaptable pre-rigged worms in your tackle box.
Three hooks, better hook-up ratios
The KILR Worm features a proven three-hook configuration:
-
Two 3/0 hooks in the front
-
One 2/0 hook in the tail
This design dramatically improves hook-up percentages when bass strike short or grab the bait at different points along the body.
Built the DeLong way
Every 9″ Weedless KILR Worm is built using the same process DeLong Lures has used since 1946:
-
Hand-poured soft plastic for long-lasting durability
-
Hand-tied internal rig made with Kevlar line
-
Anise scent mixed directly into the plastic so it lasts longer
-
Designed to outlast standard soft plastic worms
These worms aren’t disposable — they’re built to keep fishing.
A proven worm anglers keep coming back to
The 9″ Weedless KILR Worm continues to sell organically because it works. Anglers who fish it in real conditions understand why pre-rigged, weedless worms have remained effective for generations.
