RE: wacky baits
bassmaster.com has some great articles as far as bass fishing. As far as wacky rigging, i really haven't had much luck with it. I tried it a couple of times, but i was having too much success on other baits. a couple of my friends have tried and they've caught a few fish. I guess all the times that they say to use them i just throw a tube. I use tubes alot now, they're really multipurpose. I usually take 5" YUM Dingers or 5" Gary Yammamoto Senkos and just rig them straight Texas style, no weight. i keep the hook slighly exposed because i like using spinner gear for this technique. i caught alot of fish on this set up this year. smallmouth just love that erratic swimming around and sinking. i even got a muskie to slash at one. im hoping to try out some wacky rigging this year.
