Hi BR,
Here is a video of a recent afternoon fishing trip from the bank of some nearby ponds where I go over wacky Rig and Neko rig fishing from A to Z.
hope you like it!
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!
Hey Bass Resourcers!
Created a video that talks about the differences between between a Wacky Rig and Neko Rig and what makes them so good!

Good Fishing and thanks for watching!

I don't know if any of you watched the recent Facts of Fishing where Mercer was fishing a Neko rig, but the part that really stood out to me was how ridiculously visible his fluorocarbon leader was in the underwater shots. Definitely gives pause for thought about why we use fluorocarbon. Be interested to see the same shots with a mono leader, can't believe it would have been much more visible!
So today I had a total of five fish using the neko rig, but was only able to land one. I noticed that with the hook, a 1/0 kvd drop shot hook extra wide, would slide back through the bait when hooked in line with the bait, a plastic worm. I was not able to get hook penetration on the four of the fish. I switched hooks to a gamakatsu and hooked it wacky style and was able to get a solid hook set and land the other fish.
Do you guys hook in line with the worm? How do you keep the hook from sliding through the bait? Or is it the kvd hooks?
I need some help finding out the name of a rig that was posted on BR a ltitle while ago. It was similar to a neko rig, head weighted plastic with a wacky rigged hook, but instead of the hook being wacky, it is rigged weedless, with the line coming out of the plastic at the top. I tried searching, but to be honest, I don't really know where to start? Thanks in advance. F.
