I've never used mealworms. Every time I'll be using either waxworms or spikes (maggots) because I've never, so far as I have seen, been outfished by anyone around me using mealworms. I'm sure mealworms catch plenty of fish but in my opinion the waxies and spikes attract fish more consistently than mealworms.
By the way, don't discount a perch's ability to bite light. High competition, like the old Pineview, between perch is one reason why they often hit aggresively. But if they are in less compact schools, like at Rockport or Deer Creek, they often are very soft on the hit so I keep the bobber handy. If they are hitting hard, no reason to use the bobber.
