Reverse Rigging for Senkos and Other Stick Worms

OK, guys... a number of members have asked about the reverse rigging for Senkos, Yum Dingers and similar style worms we used to fish on top of heavy algae and weed mats to get those explosive, blow-up strikes from quality bass during late summer. So, here are a few pics to show this simple adaption...just run the 'tapered' end of the worm in on the front of the off-set worm hook so it can glide over top of the slop easier than the blunt end.

Fish it on 20 to 30 lb Sonic Braid...work it like a scum-frog and inch it along on top of the There is still lots of hot weather bassing to do all over the map, so give it a shot at your local, weedy lake!

Comment by John Sheehan on September 23, 2014 at 6:14am: I usually use a 1/0 hook , wacky Rigging .

Comment by John Sheehan on September 23, 2014 at 6:14am: Sleepy-I've lost a lot of worms wacky riggin' ,they fly off the hook when the Bass jump. I lost fewer worms when I double hooked but the action on the worm is stiffer and perhaps less enticing . So with those O rings they stay on the hook muck better, still retain great action and don't get torn up ? Is that the idea behind O rings?

Comment by Mark Sleeper on September 22, 2014 at 9:01pm: John it works great I caught a 3 lb basin a few casts I've had the best luck on Z-Man fatty Z with the blood red hook, also 4 and 5 lb bass I bought the o ring tool to put them on with it makes it easy its a deadly set up to say the least, the hook is weed less

Comment by John Sheehan on September 22, 2014 at 1:37pm: I have never used the o rings ,hows that work for you ?
