Does everyone only!

[Catt]

Does everyone only Wacky Rig Senkos?

 

I Wacky Rig Trick Worms, Bass Assassin Tapout worms, Creme Scoundrels, Roboworm FX Worms, & various Finesse worms.

[UPSmallie]

I usually just texas rig them behind a bullet sinker, but both ways definitely work.

[islandbass]

I'm wacky enough to wacky rig anything I think would catch a fish. I've been meaning to try a fluke wacky but haven't any flukes right now ?

[MichaelCopeland]

Haven't experimented much with the wacky rig as of now. However when I did I tried Yum Dingers, Shim E Sticks, finesse worms, Centipedes and even an Ol' Monster that the tail had been bitten off of. Only one that worked so far was the Centipede.

[Russ E]

I tried the trick worm. it did not seem to get as many bites wacky rigged as a senko.

I have used the BPS stick-o it seemed to work ok.

[Scott F]

I use senko type baits as one of my go to baits and I NEVER wacky rig them.

[bigbill]

I use a 1/8oz c-rig with a 24" leader with a 349w eagle claw weedless hook with a senko wacky rigged. I have a ball bearing locking snap swivel on the leader she I can change baits in the dark much easier.

 

i use a 1/8oz brass bullet weight with a brass clicker, a few beads with a Carolina keeper adjustable leader. When I twitch the rod tip it rattles the clicker.

I'm glad you brought this up Catt. I was just thinking today that I had never caught a bass on a wacky rigged anything. I've tried wacky rigging senkos, 4" worms, and finesse worms and never caught a thing. I have caught bass on texas rigged senkos and worms but never wacky rigged. Its odd.

I have not caught much on weightless wacky rigs.

I have had good success wacky rigging with a 1/32 or 1/16 oz wacky jig, and letting it drop along weed lines.

[Columbia Craw]

Nope.  Texas unweighted, weighted, Zappu heads, wacky drop shot, wacky with a wide gap finesse and a rare Carolina rig. Versatile bait. 

[Bluebasser86]

Nah, trick worms, mag finesse worms, french fries, flukes, pretty much whatever I have if they're eating it.

I'm in the minority here as a stick worm is the only plastic I wacky rig.  4in. to 8in.  I feel if wacky rigging is going to work, my best option is with a worm with plenty of wiggle on the fall and I don't think there is a better wiggle than on a 6in. Senko.  I even take it one step further.  This is the only way I rig one.  I know and have fished with guys that T-rig, C-rig, drop-shot and any number of other ways with them, but I just have more confidence with other plastics for those presentations.

[Darren.]

I've wacky rigged almost all styles of my soft plastics

at one time or another.

 

Fat Ika, minnow baits, creature baits, jig trailers

 

Most successful non-senko rigs for me: minnow baits

(specifically yamamoto shad shape worm), Zoom Finesse

and Trick worms.

[snake95]

Wacky rigged a Z-drop worm on a 1/20 Zman Shroomz and caught small bass with it in clear water.

[Catt]

@papajoe222 ya ever throw a Tapout worm?

[fishwizzard]

I wacky rig any worm once the nose is too ripped to t-rig it.  So far nothing has worked as well as a senko, but 6' robos on a light wacky jig/flickshake are showing some promise.  

[Angry John]

I almost never use a senko I favor the dean rojas worms.  The fall is a lot slower and they have a lot of good movement 

[Dtrombly]

I only wacky rig senkos, never texas rig them, when I need a texas rig I'll typically go to a ribbontail worm 

[NYWayfarer]

I wacky rig Yum Dingers and Bio Spawn Exosticks

[flyfisher]

i can't bring my self to fish a wacky style soft plastic.  I have tried but i get to bored with the technique.  I tend to weightless weedless rig them myself.  

[Munkin]

Tried wacky rigging a buzzbait but didn't catch anything.

Hey, @fishwizzard! I gotta admit I am just starting to experiment with wacky-rigged stickbaits and I suck at it. So ... can you tell me how to wacky rig a six-foot anything? I have a chunk of old garden hose all ready but I'll be darned if I can find a hook for it.  Sorry! Just couldn't resist but the typo caught my eye and I've been giggling to myself all day trying to imagine a bass seeing a six-foot roboworm drifting down.  (I know it was a typo.)  And since I have NEVER caught anything on a wacky rig or even a senko, I'm just gonna crawl back under my rock now! (Still giggling!)

[Master Bait'r]

I like em on a weightless t rig, you can dart them through super heavy cover and even walk the dog if you catch it right.  

 

I could never get into the wacky rig.  Maybe someday.
