Truth.

Spring summer and fall it's good. I could make at least one bite it on Christmas morning if I had to.

To me, wacky fishing is a fall back technique outside of flooded timber in the spring and downstream of falls on rivers. It's what I throw when nothing else is working, because it almost always gets something to bite. That being said, it's not normally the first, second or third bait I throw.

I just hate doing it for some reason. I was bitching about it last weekend when it was high bluebird and they wouldn't hit anything else. Something about it not being a moving bait, but not really a bottom contact bait that I can work pisses me off.

It's like anything else. I used to throw a fluke 75% of the time, but as my confidence in the wacky rig grew it replaced the fluke as my #1 go to. My favorite worm rod stays with a wacky hook tied up. If I fish a Texas rig or fluke it goes on my second best worm rod these days.

Always been a tough conditions bait for me. Especially post-spawn.

Probably not. Cause 99% of the time I fish them Tx rigged. I rarely throw wacky. If the wacky rig comes out, I’m probably struggling pretty bad.


What is nice about the O-Ring you don’t lose your Senko on every fish like you do if hooking it straight through. I don’t fish it often either but when I do i can normally catch 3 to 4 fish per Senko compared to one or maybe two if I am lucky.

It was on the sale rack at Pineville marine. I fear these lines are going away for good soon. I'll probably buy some every time I get a mileage check from now on and store it
