Also you can change your hook placement on the worm to give different actions. Hook the worm Closer to the head and the bait will glide down better. Hook in the center and the tends to spiral more as it falls, move the hook Closer to the tail and the bait will run away from the angler, especially if you hook the flat side of the worm. You can hop the worm off the bottom and it will nearly fall right back to where it was, great for bed fishing or when targeting isolated cover.

My favorite neko worm is the zoom magnum finesse worm. It’s a little big but it is one of the best skipping worms I’ve ever thrown

I have found that Shrink Wrap Tubing does a very good job of extending the life of my worms, and at a substantially cheaper price than o-rings... and Shrink Wrap Tubing Comes In many colors too...

Nice job Tyler this is my favorite lure to use. On thing that works better is the vmc crossover ring. It has 2 holes in it. 1for wacky worm & the other is for neko rig. Definitely saves on baits. 👍

When it’s July in Florida and it’s balls hot, I use the Neko rig with a 4” zoom finesse worm and the VMC nail weight with the skirt material.

I use the Robo Worm for this technique. Same color and hook. Neko rig does work most times. But when it doesn't, I try the free rig instead of wacky rig. It's just my preference

The Neko rig is my #1 dock skipping baits. It is one of 3 or 4 rods that are always on my deck from about April through October

Nice video. This one speaks to me. The Kinda Shaky rod is on list. Other fellers are using it with some success. On my side of the lake, the fish aren’t giving the love to the mutilated margarita morning colors. Trying a few more colors is half the fun. Be good

I love it when people use the correct pronunciation of words. In the Japanese language, the rig known as neko is pronounced with a short e. It sounds like the candy Necco Wafers. It is not pronounced like the leg joint I just had surgery on (knee). The word neko means cat 🐈⬛.

I have all the tackle to fish this technique but have never caught a fish on it. I JUST caught my first Gika rig fish last week. 3 months ago I caught my first wacky rig fish. Last year I caught my first shakey head fish and my first vibrating jig fish. Many of these new techniques don't initially work for me. I go back to hard baits, t-rig, and, DS.

A day I fished I kept looking around at other anglers where they got nothing an sadly stayed in a spot an I caught fish an was getting bites. Also used a kvd splash plopper an bass smashed the kvd splash plopper. I used a ton of lures an nothing. I even used jigs an whopper ploppers drop shot an nothing. I tied on the kvd splash plopper an got a bass 😀👍

Whether its a Neko rig or a Texas rig or whatever, I tend to use snap clips to make changing lures quicker and easier. My question is do bass shy away from extra tackle like a snap clip or do they just seem to ignore it and focus on hitting the lure presented to them? I haven't seen too many videos where an angler ties on snap clips and then quickly switch lures. They just seem to pick up one of their 15 rods all set up with different rigs and cast away.

Agree but when there is a large number of bait in the water, the fake bait really has to appeal to them before it is a lost opportunity. Kind of like a long car or home buying sale...oh...oh...better get it...it's slipping away...TOO LATE, GONE!!

No, most wacky hooks are short shanked; insufficient gap equals skin hooking and lost fish.
