Berkley Powerbait MaxScent Kingtail Green Pumpkin 8"

Big Worm. Big Scent. Big Bass.

When you need a worm that covers water, holds scent, and looks like something bass have been eating all season — the Berkley Powerbait MaxScent Kingtail 8" in Green Pumpkin is the one. A full-sized, scent-loaded worm built for anglers who want to present a substantial profile and keep bass interested long enough to commit to the strike.

Why the Kingtail Earns Its Name

• MaxScent Technology: Berkley's proprietary scent formula is infused throughout the entire worm body — not just the surface — releasing attractant continuously as the worm moves through the water. Fish smell it before they see it.
• Kingtail Action: The oversized, paddle-style tail creates a powerful, wide-sweeping kick as the worm is retrieved or sinks — generating vibration and flash that draws bass in from a distance and triggers reaction strikes.
• Green Pumpkin Colour: One of the most versatile and proven colour patterns in bass fishing. Mimics natural forage and blends seamlessly into vegetation, gravel, and muddy bottoms — making it a go-to in clear to moderately stained water.
• 8" Full-Size Profile: A large, substantial worm that covers water efficiently and presents a meal-sized target to bass. Ideal for Texas rigging through heavy cover, flipping into thick vegetation, and dragging along the bottom.
• Durable Powerbait Construction: Berkley's tough, flexible Powerbait compound holds up through repeated strikes, heavy cover, and long fishing sessions — keeping its shape and scent intact all day.

How to Fish It

Texas rig it and flip it into lily pads, laydowns, and heavy cover. Drag it slowly along the bottom around structure and transition zones. The Green Pumpkin pattern works year-round but is especially effective in spring and summer when bass are feeding in vegetation. The MaxScent formula gives you an edge in stained water or when fish are pressured and need that extra attractant to commit.
