Spice up your summer worming and get more bass in the boat. Tactical Bassin’ takes you through selecting the right hooks, colors, styles, and even rod tips to make sure your summer worm game is on point. Throw worms with more confidence and knowledge than ever before and catch some giants this summer!
Tim and Matt go head-to-head for 20 minutes! Both are armed with a 5" senko, each rigged differently. May the best rig win!
The senko is a proven fish catcher that works all over the globe for a variety of species. There are so many different ways to rig it but two methods stand out from the crowd. The first is the wacky rig, in which a small hook is secured in the middle of the bait and allows for maximum action. The second is a larger hook Texas rigged, allowing for the bait to be fished in and around cover.
