Im just curious what hook you guys prefer when you wacky rig. Also, what size senko works best for you guys. Im really just startin to get into the finesse techniques. I hate using a spinning rod but realize I need to sometimes to catch more fish. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Just rigged up my spinning rod today for a Wacky rig setup. I use a hook put out by Falcon Lures that I think is a sprout hook with a metal wire spring that makes it weedless. The hooks come in unweighted, 1/32, 1/16 and 3/32 oz weights. I use the 1/32 weight because I like the fall rate. I like fishing the wacky style but hate getting hung up by using a nonweedless hook. Hope this helps.
I like Finesse Wide Gap Gammy's in a 1/0 or 2/0. I use the 2/0 for some of the thicker/longer baits but the 1/0 does most of my baits.
I like Yum Dingers or anything heavy like that. I will not pay for Senkos.

I second that, also a trick worm has a slower fall than a senko. I did the test myslf in my pool.
Also try a Gitem Baits Warlock, this worm is a great wacky worm, egg sack is in the middle and both ends have ribs that face away from each other gives it a very tantilizing fall.
this may sound stuiped but i read and artical on here about the mo-wak rig tried it and was hung up 90% of the time then was messing around one day i put it on a shaky head 1/8 or 3/16 spot remver works best for me this has worked well for me it gets it to the bottom and but not to fast and has good action with out getting hung up i my self call it the ( shawacky rig )
I like the team supreme Sub Worm, a great alternative to the Senko and a lot cheaper.
