The wacky rig is one of the most simple techniques that we have in bass fishing. You can simply put a hook through the center of a straight tail worm and you have a wacky rig.
Most of the time to catch bass on a wacky rig all you need to do is cast it out and let it fall on a slack line. The bait is going to do all the work and bass cant resist the slow fall that a wacky rig provides.
However there is another way to fish a wacky rig and a few places you can fish it where other people aren’t that can lead to catching some big bass.
BassFishingHQ is dedicated to teaching people how to catch more and bigger bass. I will go over different bass fishing tips & techniques that will put more fish in the boat or on the shore. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned tournament angler, my goal is to help you catch more bass.

Thank You I will Try it on my fishing channel
I love using a wacky rig on a dropshot I've caught nice bass this way. 😊
I've found the VMC Neko Weedless books to work great.
I feel more confident going out there next time now that I've watched quite a few of your videos, thanks for doing what you do 🫶🏻
You. Going g. Fish. Or. Talk
how do you fish where lilp pads are
Love a wacky Rig it never Fails.
Bro said 12ft leader length wtf????
Just stumbled upon your video. Gotta say your a great orator. Great video with great explanations and spoken clearly.
This may sound like a stupid question but how would you feel the bite if your line is slack? I'm sort of hesitant to pick up the wacky rig because of this and i am a beginner bass angler.
Where do you put the weight?
Awesome tips. The wacky rig is my go-to. I fish it weightless, or on 1/16th, 3/32nd, or 1/8th wacky jig heads. I use the VMC's or the ones that Gambler Lures offers. There's a local tackle shop that has their own brand that I'll use as well. When I go weightless, I'll have to try it on the larger hook. I also love your tip about fishing it just under the surface. I had thought about that this week while I was on vacation (had a staycation and fished my local lake just about every day). Once thing I noticed about the wacky rig in my local lake is everyone seems to laugh at it…. but it catches fish for me. I alternate between the ned rig and a wacky rig, but the wacky rig I have on my boat year round. Can't wait to get out this weekend and try fishing it under the surface. Thanks again for your video!
I run 8 pound braid with 6 pound fluorocarbon leader on the wacky
The amount of people fishing wacky rigs and not using weedless eagle claw #3 hooks blows my mind I blast that setup into timber, grass, anything 0 hang ups.
First cast with your way you never see people do I caught one
I don't know why I watch this when I still barely know how to detect a bite
Minimo moja el senkoooo.😢😢😢
stick bait is just that,a stick how enjoyable and its like telling my friends i drive a moped now there not excited, bring back the traditional crawl ,tail grub.😆🤪😜
I’ve never understood why bass like senkos, there isnt worms that just swim around on the normal, but whatever I’ll keep doing it if it works
I was going through 2 packs of senkos a day, I started using o rings and now I only go though about a half pack a day, that’s almost 15 bucks I’m saving per day by using o rings if anyone is wondering how they work
I like fishing it with a fast retrieval as if its a top water lure are grass or reeds. Bass will come up and crush it.
Ty, do u ever use a Float with a wacky rig?
I just saw in another video he recommended to bounce your slack when it’s on the bottom not pop it off the bottom but bounce your slack so your worm is shaking a bit when it’s sitting on the bottom
Lost 2 bass today on a wacky rig fml 🤦🏼♂️ I almost lost it
Try texas rigging it too
what is good to catch small mouth bass and trout in ponds?
My name is also Ty
Awesome. Very easy to understand your tips, and extremely helpful. I am initiating at fishing world, and at my previous fishing I just caught
1 fish. I will use all this knowledge and post further. Thanks a lot.
I find it funny there's a term for rigging a worm like this. I feel like anyone who's brand new to fishing will instinctively want to bait a hook in this manner only to be told by someone it's not the correct way and then later find out it's a special bass technique.
What's this "flick shake jig" that I keep hearing about? I tried searching for it on the Internet, but there isn't one that could be found.
Never tried this method but plan to. Please advise again on the hook you use and the knot. Thanks.
Great video
Are you from Columbus ohio?
Wacky worm
This is the best rig ever BRE! 1st time using it I caught a 8.5 lb bass !! Amazing.
Btq milt here why do you go braid to flo let me know milt
I love wacky rig. There are so many tweaks you can use. Trim up the stick bait in many different ways, adding split shot at different lengths, working different retrieval styles, etc. I have even gone down to micro sized worms for panfish.
Something I never see that I'm always listening for is the length of the senko worm? You use 4" 5"? 🪱
