Whacky Riggin'
I was just curious as to who has tried this type of rigging.
I usually just Texas rig or Carolina rig my worms, but I think I'm gonna give this a shot.

I have whacky rigged Senko style baits with very good success. I just toss
it to a likely location and let it sink to the bottom. Jig it up once or twice, and then crank it in. -- Public Fishing Forums Fishing Link Index www.YumaBassMan.com webmaster at YumaBsssMan dot com "Aa Aa" wrote in message ...

Whacky Riggin'
Bob
I pretty much use the same method of WW-ing but I,ve found that if I stop my retrieve in mid retrieve, kill it and let it fall a few feet, I get bite fairly often . I guess bass just follow it out of curiousity but can't resist the wiggle Last year [late fall] I experimented by using circle hooks instead of traditional worm hooks and my catch rate went up a little .

WW Sencos have put a lot of bass in my boat. I really like it around shallow (10') hard cover in clear water. It has nearly replaced the jig&pig for those targets. Add in a bunch of grass edge fish and you've had a good day.

Whacky Riggin'
A majority of my senkos cast last year were on size 1 gammy octopus hooks
wacky rigged. It's just a killer presentation. When I go out fishing I usually have two rods just for senkos, 1 wacky rigged and 1 texas rigged for those not so friendly exposed hook places. But casting that wacky rig into some brush or sticks has paid off as well, sure I've lost enough hooks but some nice fish have come out as well. "Ken Blevins" wrote in message ...

An often unweighted worm hooked through the middle (exposed point). Pretty
simple, but killer! "Proper" wrote in message . .. OK! What is a whacky rig anyways? "Eric Ryder" wrote in message ... "Aa Aa" wrote in message ...

Circle hooks prevent as many "gut hooks" which kill the fish even if you do
get the hook out with pliers. Good job! "Ken Blevins" wrote in message ...
