DIY Weedguard application to Wacky and Neko hooks

Featured Replies

Hey everyone.

 

Recently uploaded a DIY video for adding a wire weed guard to your favorite Wacky rig or Neko Rig hook.  Its a pretty simple and straight forward process that can really help make us more efficient on the water and save some money by keep you from getting hung up on weeds or brush with your wacky and neko set up.  Hope it you like it!

Interesting weedguard, James. Thanks for sharing.

 

I tie my own using 40# test mono and a cheap fly-tying kit.

Have looked at, but passed on buying the wire you're using,

though your method makes me want to take a second look.

 

I don't use long-shank hooks for wacky rigging, but this could

still work on shorter shanks like the Gamakatsu Wide Gap Finesse.

Thanks for the feedback Yak Fishin'!  I always say that if you have something that isn't broke don't fix it.
