What size hooks do you guys use for wacky rigging senkos? 2024
JFlynn97 reply :
I'm going to be picking up some Gamakatsu finesse wide gap hooks to use primarily for wacky rigging senkos. I've heard recommendations for everywhere from size 2 to 4/0. If you had to pick only one size, which would y'all go? I think I'm going to try for 1/0, but I'd love people's opinions!

I've been using Gamakatsu's Inline Circle hook size 1/0. I prefer the one with the turned up eye, which I snell onto the fluorocarbon leader. I've caught a lot of bass on that hook.

I use the Gamakatsu Offset EWG 2/0 hook for both wacky and t-rigs.......A lot of times I'm using wacky rigged and get to areas that have a lot of weeds and just take the worm of and rehook it as a weightless t-rig, or vice-versa.

Dens, i have done this as well just out of convenience or had to rig up quickly and found it works well. i also like to texas rig until the end gets tore up, then wacky it to get more use out of my worms.
All Day Fishing reply :
1/0 OR 2/0, I use two O-rings that overlap each other, and where they cross (makes an X) place the hook underneath there and you don't even have to put the hook through the worm! Works great for me
NHBull reply :
Owner wacky and also use it for dropshots
Glenn reply :
I keep it simple: 2/0 EWG.
Bankbeater reply :
Usually I use a 2/0 EWG hook. If I am fishing with a very skinny worm I will downsize to a 1/0 EWG.
mattkenzer reply :
Another vote for Gamakatsu Finesse Wide Gap in 2/0 ....

Owners weedless wacky hook 2/0
fishwizzard reply :
Huh, I am using a #1 or 1/0 Owner Wacky hook. I didn't realize that most guys go larger. I don't fish a wacky senko very much at all, but have never noticed any hook up issues. I do like the idea of using a small EWG hook for both t-rigging and wacky.

Then use a small hook, if that's what you like. There's no "wrong way" here....
We might point and laugh at you, but you're not "wrong".

Simple is always better. 2/0 for most everything I fish, Until I get into 10in or above worms then I go bigger.
