Gangly,
I think about any worm would work but most folks I know Carolina Rig the Fluke or a lizard....I've never caught a bass on a lizard but I have this week on the fluke..they do work..;)
Also ..I like heavily scented worms such as
Powerbait
Bass Assassin

Gambler makes a nice ribbontail worm..
and yes..I like Zoom too..:)

Gangly,
Personally in Ohio..and where you are fishing I'd simply peg the worm..I would invest in some 10 -15 pound Power Pro braid..simply because the line won't twist as bad as monofilament..

I'd tie on 3/0 worm hook..to the end..rig a dark colored worm Texas style..and then above the worm pinch a ROUND BB split shot..now to make it semi Carolina Rig..simply slide your BB up the line about 18 inches..;)For your area that is fine..I'd rig 2 rods like this..and with a light breeze drift the entire lake early for 2 -3 hours..If you don't get a hit..I'd kiss that lake good bye..Start drifting by the shoreline first in the morning..both shorelines and work your way to the center..no fish..time to abort.

During real tournaments this is illegal..it's that good.I do it all the time when fish are slow..I've fished up to 3 rods at one time.:)
