4923, weedless swimbaits
Posted by Mattlures, Thu Jul-22-04 11:27 PM
remember a while back somebody posted that video of the weedless swimbait. It was a basic waking swimbait with rubber tubing going through the spliring and covering the treble points. Well I tried this on my waking swimbait last night with a piece of plastic worm instead of the tube and it worked great. It is still not totaly weedles but you can drag it through some prety weedy stuff. I ended up catching three with the biggest going 4 pounds. The hook had no problem penetrating through the hook. So for all you guy using swimbaits with one hook of the treble imbeded I defenatley recomend
the worm or tube

How are you rigging the worm to cover the hooks?
