The fish swallowed the hook and wax worm whole, even including the tiny bead and ring
that I've added to the hook base.

That is really stepping into the realm of ultralight fishing.

Wait till you buy those tiny leaf worms for bait.  They even smaller than waxies and they work great.  I think they call them spikes but I can't remember.

Try scuds from the pet shop too.

The real villain is looking at you.  The last hero was just not true.  If everything works out in the end.  It's because all things make amends.

I don't like ultralight power. Hard to penetrate. I'll just adjust the drag.

I've been using meal worms, too. They haven't been as great as waxies.
