Any one seen or have a Wacky-Tool? They are sold by Northern Bass
Supply.. Used to rig senko type baits Texas or wacky style, Reportedly
this tool will allow you to put a "O" ring (real easy) on the bait and
extends the useful life considerably

The tool works well but I have found that using small black zip ties is
easier and better. You can get a bag of 100 at Home Depot for short money.
This way you do not have to mess with the little o-rings. For those that
fish in the winter months, the o-rings are hard to deal with when your
fingers are numb. My senko baits actually last for long than one fish.....

Thanks,the zip ties sound good and they would be much easier to carry, I
don't need another tool to tote around..

Try some ortho elastics for oral use on braces and appliances for
rearranging occlusion and dentition from your local Dentist or Orthodontist.
Some drug stores Cary them too.

OK, I give up. What is a Wacky-Tool used for?

The Wacky-Tool is used to put "O" rings on senko type bait when whacky
rigging..I think other suggestions are very good, no Wacky-Tool in my
future.. I am going to try 4" wire ties, they seem to be the simplest

Try some ortho elastics

I'm a bit confused. I just started using Senkos this year and they do
come apart rather quickly. How exactly would I use these bands to hook
the worm and prolong its life?

Just the same way as they suggested with the tie wrap. Just put these
rubber bands on the bait first and roll them down over the hook to keep its
place in the bait. You may have to double the band in some cases, figure
eight it in half and create the smaller, tighter, diameter. (More like the
"O" ring style)Or, you can put the band on the hook with the figure eight
and slip the bait between the hook and the bait. This is hard to explain, I
hope you can visualise what I am trying to say ;-)
