Our 6.5" Slinky Worm is the perfect "Trick Worm" for shaky head fishing. It uses our super soft, super boyant plasitsol, which keeps the tail standing up vertically as it's worked along the bottom. Even in a resting position the bulbous tail will slowly undulate, eliciting the strike.

Since we use a very low resin plastisol they are much more soft/suple. This allows each worm to float, gives the worm better action, and allows better hook penetration when rigging.

Rigging

The ideal rig we've found for these is fished on a Shaky Head. 7' Medium light fast tip spinning rod, on 12lb braid to a 6 or 8lb florocarbon leader. 1/4oz Shaky head jig. Cast the bait out, let it fall on semi slack line until it hits bottom, than slowly drag the bait back, keeping contact with the bottom at all times. Periodically stopping the bait, and shaking the rod tip, making the bulbous tail of the bait undulate and flutter as it stands up at a 70 degree angle off the jig head.

Additional Rigging Options:

Texas

Carolina

Shaky Head

EWG Weightless

Dropshot

Wacky

Neko

Free Rig Trailer

Retrieve

When thrown on a Shaky Head, cast the bait out, let it fall on semi slack line until it hits the bottom, than slowly sweep the rod, left to right, dragging the bait along the bottom. As you make contact with structure, leave it in place, and shake the rod tip ever so slightly. This will cause the tail of the worm to undulate in place as the worm is sitting tail up on the bottom. The bite usually comes while the tail is undulating.

Rod/Reel/Line

7' Medium or Medium light spinning rod, extra fast tip, paired up with a 1500 or 2500 series spinning reel on 12 pound braid to a 6 or 8lb fluorocarbon leader.

Great quality & Excellent color selection

What little bit I have used them has been rather productive. They perform much like their predecessors however I do think these are more buoyant. I have not fished it weightless yet so I can’t speak for the majority of its action. I can say without a doubt , if I’m having trouble getting bites. I can tie one of these on a Texas rig with a 1/8 oz weight and get bit. I’m love my this 20pk
