This Wacky Rig Hack Is Amazing!

[@lwilliams55]

Matt, this is a great idea and thanks for sharing this. I want to add another idea, that has worked super well for me this past year that I discovered just trying different stuff. I've been using tiny zip ties, in bright colors to add a unique color band look to the worms- something a little different fish might not be seeing much. I gave up on the rubber band products- either they slip too much or they swell or dissolve quickly. I just turn the small grip knot on the tie to the inside. You can apply them as tightly as you prefer and use a large variety of colors depending on the contrast you want. Also the will slip up and down with just a little effort to reposition quickly. I'm finding that the make the worms last a really long time time, never swell or dissolve. Various watermelon colors with the bright yellow ties have been working very well for me.

[@MattStefanFishing]

great idea! thanks for sharing!

[@TimEdwards-sx2pq]

Awesome

[@christopherthao2242]

I go through 1 pen every 2 weeks at work, I always take off the spring in them and used them for things like this. Saves you a lot of plastics especially when drop shotting.

[@MattStefanFishing]

sounds good!

[@boater18281]

Loved the centering for years. Cant wait to these new rigging techniques. Thanks Matt

[@MattStefanFishing]

You bet!

[@jasonmeadows2103]

I keep all my old pen springs and use them for my wacky and neko rig worms. You can stretch it out a bit and get around 3 to 4 rigs out of each spring. It's cheap and I don't rip through my baits as easily, especially the senkos and roboworms.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Thanks for sharing

[@BenHolliday1]

That’s a great idea. I will try that. I have been putting a little piece of clear heat shrink around my General, hook only the heat shrink perpendicular, then push a 1/16 oz tungsten nail weight (no head) through the heat shrink which keeps the nail weight from coming out when I am skipping. I am losing far less worms and nail weights, still catching fish.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Thanks for sharing

[@jonbullard7074]

Great tip! I’ve been using small pieces of surgical tubing on my wackeys and hooking right through it. Works really good.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Good stuff!

[@PragmaticBuckeye]

I started using centering pins this year for drop shotting finesse, solid head tubes. Bait life extension has been great, even in smallmouth water. They'll pluck all the tentacles off the tubes before they tear off the body & head. I could not recommend more highly.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Thanks for sharing

[@ronjelvik2450]

@MattStefanFishing ive kinda kept this setup to myself for the better part of about 4 years now up here in Oregon. Yes, it works amazing with a centering screw pin for fishing Wacky/Neko rigged. And the way you were describing how the worm slides up your line when the fish is doing its head shakes to try and throw the bait is spot on. Works just like you were describing, Its AMAZING! You should definitely fish your Wacky/Neko rigged setups like this from now on. You save soooo much more senkos "stick baits"

[@MattStefanFishing]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@mikecraig9007]

For ten years, now, I have been using a similar concept that has been working just fine by using the "poor man's" approach. I pre-rig a few sticks "of my own choice" by using the springs that came in cheap ball-point "click" pens and, after screwing them sideways into the worm/Senko, snipped them flush to the bait's body with a pair of side-cutter pliers. Later on, I was able to find assortments of similar screws at hardware-stores. Bigger/thicker baits required heftier springs but the idea always seems to serve my needs. "Building" a few worms ahead of hitting the lake, made it easy to keep my line in the water and not have to build one while trying to fish. The system you have shown looks like it will work just fine, Matt and, in concept, is quite similar.

[@chuckjohnson4048]

BTDT, works great.

[@MattStefanFishing]

thanks for sharing

[@seanburke4482]

Just use a small zip tie (black in color). Cinch it down over the middle of the worm, cut off the excess plastic of the zip tie, slide hook under the zip tie without penetrating the plastic worm. One worm can last most of the day.

[@MattStefanFishing]

I use multiple sizes of transparent plastic straws. Using scissors cut about 1/8th inch cross sections. Slide it on from the small end of the worm then place your hook Neko or wacky style. Lasts through several catches.

Great info Matt! An an alternative for wacky rigging Decoy has a worm holding spring that comes in 3 sizes. It can also secure a fluke style bait where the bend of the EWG hook near the hook eye and eliminates any tearing. Good luck at stage 👍

I recently got some of your core tackle wacky rigs that has this same centering pin on it and I already had some wacky dual hooks that I picked up awhile ago.

That’s how I rig em , now get the hook with the double wire weedguard from Gamakatsu, the wire bends back an clips on the tip point of the hook , and it’s super weedless

And you need to rig them that way. Because if the Senko goes above the weedless hook you're proper fudged.

[@jeffreywaters3934]

Best stock up on those pins as bad as the fish sling the bait off!!! Even tried the spring method and got tired of losing so many baits and re-rigging, went back to the silicone sleeve and crossover ring as far as wacky rigging

[@MattStefanFishing]

Sorry to hear that

[@edwardwicht5271]

I like the sword shaped holder you have coming. (Can’t recall name.). I’ve found that they are a little flimsy such that I sometimes use 2 of them not to pull through the worm. I’ve used the centering pin as well. If the pin goes all the way through the worm, I use wire cutters to gut off the access on the other side. Both work. Also live the VMC crossover.

[@MattStefanFishing]

Cross over rings are great provided you can get them around your bait. The advantage the cps has and the geecrack is wacky or neko rigging larger baits

[@twiggsherman3641]

Soft silicone tubing cut up in pieces. It'll slide right over the senko and is much cheaper. Can get like a 25 foot roll of it for 20 bucks, and it'll last you forever.. Cross-over ring is better for neko rigs though.

[@adammartin7237]

[@timmontano8792]

You should try using some clear shrink tubing. You can achieve the same variation as far as how you orient your hook. An added benefit is that it strengthens the worm where the hook goes in rather than pre-weakening it by hook penetration alone or by screwing in one of those screw in attachment points. Everyone does it their preferred way I guess. If you're way wins you the big money then, that's the way to go with though.

[@MattStefanFishing]

I have some

[@KirkAllenOutdoorAdventures]

interesting set up, it's so crazy how many ways we can hook a wacky rig. I don't get to particular. losing worms is part of the deal, seems fish like a fresh out of the pack worm over an over fished one for me anyway. thanks for sharing!

[@MattStefanFishing]

Right on

[@mistertwister1816]

I wind 4” spring coils myself using touching wraps of 0.012” stainless wire (32lb test) around different diameter nails, etc. Use touching wraps so that you have more coils … you can always pull on the coils to get the end to the preferred coil gap size when on the water inserting it into your bait. And tight winds store better and are easier to work with when pushing the loose wraps into the bait. The different diameters are needed to fit different baits, and also allow you the option to put the spring into the nose of an EWG-Hooked bait to keep the bait from sliding down the hook. The same spring in a bait allows you to hover rig a jig hook in the bait…. I insert the jig hook first then twist in the spring. I have a million other uses for 0.012” stainless wire in lure craft so buying o-rings, VMC crossovers, shrink tubing, clear tubing cuts marketed for Senkos, and using pen springs are all unnecessary cost for me. I store the springs in a small transparent plastic tubes (hobby store).

If you are just fun fishing this is a solid trick, but if you are a tournament fisherman the best way to rig a neko or wacky is to simply put your hook through the worm. When a fish bites it it will either slide up or the worm will tear off allowing the fish no leverage or nothing to get in the way of hook.

I don’t know…. IMHO, the lightest Core Tackle wacky shot is the way to go. It gives the worm GREAT action, and from what I’ve seen it doesn’t sink THAT much faster than a weightless wacky rig. One of Core Tackles best baits, IMHO. But, with that said, this has been around for a while. Those pins are VERY cheap, and it does work. I used them exclusively, as an affordable alternative to the VMC rig/tool (which are WAY overpriced), and they worked great. But, I’m completely sold on the Core Tackle Wacky Shot. That’s such a great rig. And, not all stick baits fall the same. But, with that bait, you get a really nice consistency, regardless of senko-style bait being used.

@@MattStefanFishing Oh boy…..do I have a bone to pick with you, buster! (Does anyone still use the term “buster”, anymore). I finally found a few fish today on Headwaters, and caught my two biggest fish today on the Wacky shot, but I lost my third, RIGHT AT THE DAMN BOAT!!! The great thing is that I saw its side profile at the side of the boat,and reached down to grab it and it shoot it out right before I could “lip” it. Oh, well….at least I got to see it up close. That had to be 8lbs, which is a size that lake is known for, and then some. The other two were 4-6lbs, and hit that senko like it owed them money. Big, mean, aggressive fish today. Not many, but nice sized bass. But, why are those hooks so damn small, Matt??? The two I landed were barely hooked, as well, but deep in the fishes mouth. I’m surprised I got those back to the boat. It’s not like I’m not setting the hook well, but it seems like that hook isn’t getting buried very well somewhere in the roof of the mouth. Like I said, I had a great time, but was wondering if you experienced that, or if I’m doing something wrong. That rig was the only thing they would hit today (with a Junebug Senior), but they downright hammered it.👍

[@yankeebass1]

It does work great. you just have to be careful when rigging a small diameter wacky hook as you can throw the bait. I screw it in flush that way you can add some of the plastic to help hold the hook. Also, as your plastic rips after a few fish you can unscrew it turn 90 degrees and screw it back in. Gets a few more fish.
