Free Rig. I believe that it was invented in South Korea by Korean bass anglers. It’s now very popular also in Japan. In this video, I’ll show you how I catch Bass using a Free rig with my bait finesse tackles from the bank.
I don’t remember when Free rig got popular in Japan but now Free rig is a kinda standard rig for Bass fishing as well as other classic rigs like Texas Rig, C-RIg, Drop shot, etc, etc…
I tried this rig for both saltwater and freshwater fishing and got a lot of luck! This rig works great.
In this video, I’ll intro a Free rig and demonstrate how I catch Largemouth Bass using it. The lures I’m using are Gary Yamamoto Senko and Kut Tail Worm. Both are promising lures.
Let’s check out the video!

I have been using a Free Rig for the past two years and I found it works better on a spinning reel. When casting I leave the bail open until I think it reaches the bottom the slack line allows more separation between the weight and the hook.
Awesome

So more free than a Texas rig apparently. Back in the day when we Texas rigged with a glass bead called " Doodling " Don Iovino invented it. But that was in the 80's. 😮❤
Cut tail!
Wow you’re right, the kut tail isn’t that popular here. I must get some of the 3.5 in version, where do you purchase if I live in the US? Tackle warehouse only has the 4” of course, not the 3.5”

This is an awesome instructional video. I really appreciate you showing the action on working the bait!
Very helpful video, Thank you!
Great video!
Glad I found your channel! Great information in your videos!
I like this set up. 👍
Sweet rig 👍👍
Thanks for the great and informative video on the Free Rig. I primarily use this as my confidence bait when going out over my previous ned rig. Again, great job on the video!
You get very in depth, and explain alot, thank you
Great rig can’t wait to try it great videos thanks 👍
Thanks so much for your instructions. I tried the Free Rig today but struggled with the retrieve. Now that I know its a slack line presentation, and I have to watch the line for bites it makes A LOT more sense now. Definitely going to work on this next weekend and over my vacation! I have 1/8th tungsten drop shot weights, but ordering some 3/16 and 1/4's. Also had to track down some JDM 3.5 inch Kut Tails, but got those on order too. Going to grab some Shad's as well. While I struggled with it today, I loved how the rig felt on my BFS setup =)
Great content! I love the bite incoming notice.
非常詳細的解說，學習了，謝謝分享
Thank you for making this instructive and quite entertaining!
Question, In Japan do people prefer to fish with barb or barbless hooks.
Thanks, I love that your teaching Japanese techniques
A fancy split shot, Carolina rig, t rig.
Nice video bro 👍🏻 btw is that good for shallow water?
I absolutely love this technique!!! Where can I get the weights?
Great info. Thank you
Thanks for the video. I will definitely be trying this in my Arsenal. I finesse fish the drop shot mainly and this will be great to use as well.
Saw you on a different video explaining this technique. Found your channel tonight. I subscribed, awesome stuff!
Angler Waki! I’m looking to get a bfs rod. Wondering what you thought about the shimano Sensilite vs the bps micro lite?
Today I'll make a try of it on lake Biwa, I'm about to use a BFS Aldebaran and a BFS Xpride rod, 5g weight and yamasenko, I hope make some catches, nice tutorial like always 👍
Nice video, good technique and nice teaching 👍
Great job 👏
I think I have watched every single one of your videos. But which would you recommend for a beginner fishing in a highly pressured lake/pond?
What strain of Bass is in Japan?
Free rig is awesome
FINALLY, someone who explains that this is a finesse rig and not yet another rig to be bastardized into a power technique!
Thank you. A very helpful video, easy to follow with good tips!
I love jdm fishing!
This is the best explanation ive seen for the free rig. Now i see the value of it and how to work it. Thank you.
Excellent videos, you explain the techniques very well, including the nuances. Thank you.
Awesome video!! You’re a great teacher. Thanks! And hit me up if you ever come to Grand Lake in Oklahoma
Hook size 1/0?
nice video! do you prefer the texas rig or the free rig for fishing saltwater rock jetties? What about for surf fishing? And why, thanks in advance!
Good info, thank you 👍👍
Very nice, thank you!
Waki I really enjoy your videos and have learned alot. What offset ewg hook size do you recommend for a 3 inch senko
What water temperature is best for this rig?
Great video my friend! 👍
Waki-sempai, do you think large mouth bass is easier to catch or spotted bay bass is easier?
Caught them all year round with the free rig that’s my go to setup now
