There's another fishing channel he was fishing the entire video 10plus bass with 1 senko after looking through his videos I found where he explains it. He uses 5/8inch shrink tube clear puts a small peice over the hook location. I heat it a little an hook through the tubing which is basically invisible an its gives your hook a hard hook set. Seriously one of the simplest most amazing fishing hacks.
I like the quick Carolina Rig!!
O ring is going to kill your hook up ratio secondly I’m almost certain your “ball” wacky rig hook is a shaky head
I've experimented with electrical shrink wrap instead of o rings. Doesn't cut the plastic like the o rings, you can choose how long of a piece you prefer and much more durable making plastics last much longer
You should get way more likes and views than what you do!!!
Cool tips. Love the videos.
This is how to rig a senko… not fish it
You are the last real fishing youtuber
I’ve tried and tried using senkos. I can’t. I light them up on ribbon tail worms though
Did he really create the name for the carolina rig?
Hi
I have 1 pole that’s says the it uses 10 pound test but all the people I watch say to use 65 pound test for a frog. Could I put heavier line on it?
Awesome videos and channel, I love the Texas rig but I’m going to start incorporating whacky and Carolina. Get tips!
Have anything for saltwater jigs and swim baits?
What rig is best for lakes?
Love your hair 🔥🤙
Bass fishing is my favorite
I used O-rings for a bit but I noticed the only size that Gander Mountain sold (store in my area) where just to small and the pressure of them seemed to do more damage then good.
I’m fishing a pressured pond for a fishing club I started. I was wondering if senkos work in a pressured pond?
Mr. Yamamoto prefers rigging his 5" Senko's Texas rig style with a bullet wt.
Carolina rig incorporates a glass bead up under the bullet weight that can bounce up and down and make a clicking sound like crayfish whenever shaking your Rod tip the sinker falls down on the glass bead that hits the top of the swivel and makes a sound. One of the reasons Eagle Claw sales the perfect size glass bead to sit in the bottom of the bullet weight. This is also why you have to set the hook to the right instead of straight up in the air on a Carolina rig. Just informing you because I'm from South Carolina. I'm 30 now and my uncle who's in his 60s taught me how to do this when I was a little girl on lake Hartwell. Tight lines and bent rods!!
helps to rig them straight
For wacky rig Put 2 o ring on it and cross them over then u have a lot better of a hook up ratio
Hey Tyler! Great Vid. I mainly go to two local reservoirs in my area. One is reservoir has a very rocky bottom with stained water and the other has a grassy bottom and very clear water. How should I rig a senko for these two different reservoirs?
I only use sankos wacky
Just a tip for the o-ring tool, if you put two o-rings on there, you can cross them in an X shape and still have your hook be perpendicular to the bait, resulting in a better hookup ratio
Hi Reel or Tyler remember me im conner from birdys cabin you sit with us at lunch all the time
Hey Tyler so my name is Luis barrett and I'm gonna change my name and I was wondering if Barrett Bassin sounds like a good name for a fishing channel. Thanks tyler
Hi Tyler it is Matthew and I was in by by birdies cabin you have a really cool channel keep up the good work
Tyler I was in birdies cabin I'm Luke
Great video
What kind of line do use
I prefer the cross method for wacky rigging. Two O rings crossed with the hook going through the bait the way you originally showed it. I find the Bass have a higher hook up ratio when you keep the hook perpendicular to the stick bait. I'm sure you know of this already though. Great vids. Thanks!
You really shouldn't use the trademarked name "Senko" for all those worms by different brands. You're just hurting whoever owns the actual Senko trademark holder. You might not know this but if everyone started calling all those stickbait worms senkos then whoever owns the Trademark (Gary Yamamoto?) can lose the right to use it exclusively.
Staying active on here because I love your vids!😄
why do people call all of the stick worms senkos? only the Yamamoto brand is called the senko
Noting beats a Yamasenko
if any one needs to know how to fix a reel or tune a reel go see my latest video
Isn't your Texas two step a Mojo rig instead of Carolina? I thought the key part to a Carolina rig was the bead, so it clicks on the weight..
Where is Grant?
There is a better hook up ratio in the wacky setup if you use 2 o rings and crops them. Then you can pass the hook through the middle of the x and the hook will face the opposite direction of the worm.
I don't want to be rude but you rigged the wacky rig wrong u want 2 o rings and overlap them so it crosses over each other to put the hook through sideways and when they bites you don't have to worry about them getting off because the hook is inline with the bait
