FISHING TIPS
Wacky Style Rig
The easiest rig to use with soft plastic worms, the wacky rig is effective when fishing for smallmouth and largemouth bass.
How It’s Done: Insert the hook (no weight) through the midsection of the lure so it hangs down on both sides. Cast and allow it to sink to the desired depth then twitch the rod tip to make both ends of the worm to wave and shake. A jighead also can be used to add weight to increase sink-rate and castability. Wacky-rigged worms are effective near cover such as weeds or docks, but with an exposed hook, are apt to snag when fished in the thick stuff.
