Joe, thanks for the report. Rodney's video with this rig is really
eye-popping. Rodney, a question for you: I notice you suggest a long
shank, loop-rigged hook with this rig. Why not a set-up with the stand-out
hook?

The Stand Out hook was designed for drop shotting, not the wiggle rig
which is "not" drop shotting, although rigged similarly. yes it will
work with the wiggle rig, yes you will catch fish with them together,
and if you always did, I would make more money, but I would also be
short changing the fisherman, if I told them to use it. In testing the
wiggle rig, hooks that could pivot on the line, unlike the Standout with
can't, catch more fish, and entice more bites. Mojo even includes the
Standout in the Wiggle rig package, I tell people use the StandOut hook
for crappie fishing with live bait, or drop shotting when you run out
of bungees on the water. Otherwise use your favorite hook for the lure
your fishing, if you miss the hook set, not a problem, keep wiggling the
lure, the fish will hit it again, and again, and again until you set
your hook. I have one on film, that hit a lure 13 times in 30 sec. when
I was not using a hook, just filming strikes, using a nose screw in the
lure. I have missed a few strikes using other hooks, but I catch them on
the next hit, when they spin around and nail it again
