Wacky Rig
The Wacky Rig is a popular fishing technique primarily used for bass fishing. It involves hooking a soft plastic bait, usually a worm, through its middle, allowing the ends to dangle freely. This unique presentation mimics the natural movement of prey, making it highly effective in attracting fish.
Anglers often use a lightweight hook and may add a small weight to enhance casting distance. The Wacky Rig can be fished in various water conditions, including shallow and deep areas. It is especially effective in calm waters, where the subtle movements of the bait can entice fish to bite.
