I fish mine weightless and on 8lb fluorocarbon. The floro helps it sink a little faster and is nearly invisible. |

I've tried braid with a fluoro leader and straight fluoro. Straight fluoro is great for clear water, but if there are heavy weeds or a lot of snags, I prefer straight braid. If I snag up with 50 pound test braid, I can straighten out my Gamakatsu Number 4 Octopus Circle hook to free the line. I hate break offs. _________________ Don't forget to wear sunscreen and don't litter! |

If you bend the hook and have to retie, it's almost the same thing isn't it? _________________ "Come after Me, and i will make you to become fishers of men"

Yeah, I usually don't wacky in heavy cover. In weeds or pads ill throw a Texas rig or jig on braid. |

Straightening out the hook is the worst case scenario. I've pulled up trees and shipwrecks with 50 pound test Power Pro braid. _________________ Don't forget to wear sunscreen and don't litter! |

Better than littering the bottom with tackle |

Guys, Guys, If fishing with rw al senkos use an o ring. The worms last a lot longer and I think if gives it vetter action. I have 10 or more bass on one senko using this method. I think putting a hook thru the middle takes away some of the action. They don't call me Billysenko for nothing. |

I use Yum Dingers in various lengths and colors. I always use 0-rings (which can be had very inexpensively on Amazon (010 EPDM O-Ring, 70A Durometer, Black, 1/4" ID, 3/8" OD, 1/16" Width (Pack of 100)"
Misc.; $7.47. I rig these with no weight and a #1 circle hook. I can usually catch 5 or more bass before the bait is ruined. O-rings save $$$. I like to apply the rings to quite a few baits before I go out so I can rig a new one in 2 seconds. _________________ The FishingChef |
