Rigging Question

Featured Replies

New guy to the forums here.  Old guy to the rest of the world.  I did a search for the answer to my question to avoid rehashing old territory but I did not find what I am looking for.

Getting back into bass fishing after many years away.  In a past life I've fished crank baits, jigs, worms, etc., etc., using many of the techniques I am reading about here so I am not a total dummy.  But something I keep seeing reference to is "wacky rigging" and I can't find a description of it.  I've fished Texas rigged worms, Carolina rigs, and variations of them for soft baits.  I've read about drop shotting and there is plenty of descriptions of that.

What exactly is a wacky rig?

Look up senkos

normally you put a hookin the center of a senko and cast it and let it sink on slack line

My fav. technique

I did do a fair amount of reading about senkos.  That is one of the places I found reference to wacky rigging.  But I did not find a description of what that is.  I just read that senkos are fished "wacky rigged".  If all it amounts to is hooking them in the center, we fished plastic worms that way long ago.  I guess the more things seem to change the more they stay the same.

hook it through the egg sack and chunk away its a old rigging method used called diffrent things in diffrent area's but most commonly wacky rig.

There is an entire section on wacky rigging within the Senko FAQ section at the top of the page. Here you go:
