CODbasser Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 was just wondering if anyone has done any good with the jackall flick shake worm and the wacky rig jig heads....i found a cool tackle shop the other day in abington that had em and picked some up to try...any tips would be awesome... Quote
Uncle Leo Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 I have used both and caught fish. The plastic is not at all durable though. One worm will not last more then one fish. That said I would say they are overpriced. Quote
CODbasser Posted April 23, 2009 Author Posted April 23, 2009 they are def overpriced....5 bucks for 8 worms...haha....the jig heads are rediculous too...just wanted to try them...im sure there are some cheaper alternatives...if anyone know of any let us know Quote
Jake. Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 I had my best day of the year so far on the 4.8" Flick Shake last Saturday. I caught 18 bass in about one and a half hours, and only used three worms. The plastic is soft, but they hold up to a lot of fish as long as the bass doesn't throw the worm while jumping. Use the lightest jighead you can get away with. Quote
andamtoft Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 The jig head can also be used with senko style baits, same basic concept, if you want the fall rate of your senko to increase. Quote
sammy1 Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 they rae deadly when there is alot of pressure. i caught a nice 2 pounder on one last saturday and the worm held up great. the best tip for the worms is do not over work them. just the slightest twitch of the rod tip and the worm really shakes. just drag or bounce the bait down the bank and pause it at times. if you can find them use the jig heads with the weed guard. i have had better luck in the 4.8 inch size in watermelon pepper.

You're talking about The Bass Shop. One of the finest local tackle shops you will find. I too like the flick shake. I've done fairly well with them focusing on docks so far this year. Quote
BARON49_Northern NY Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 Have not tried that exact jig and worm, but have wacky jigged finesse worms, soft stick baits, zoom trick worms, and several others and it is a good presentation. Light jigs work the best, but is tough to fish on windy days and choppy water. Quote
basshunter81 Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I have had good luck with the worms. try wacky rigging them on a drop shot. Quote

Avalonjohn44 Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 I looked on ebay at a pic of the Flick Shake. I have no problem paying $20 for a megabass crank, or 18 for a good LC... But to pay $16 for a normal looking jighead and what amounts to a slightly fatter zoom finesse worm is a little over the top. I'll be throwing it walmart-style this weekend. Bag a jigheads $1.19, bag of finesse worms $3.79, and $11 extra bucks in my pocket. Quote
