ripped tiki sticks

[sumal]

i had to see what the big fuss was over tiki sticks because they were so big on the forum. turns out they work magic. everything you heard is true. the problem is you catch to amny fish and they tear off the hook. is there any way to rig them so there is a less chance of ripping or anything i can do to prevent it bsides the new bait stuff out?

worm glue......they usually stay on for me for about 3-4 maybe 5 fish 8)

Depends on how you are fishing them. If you are T-rigging them weightless the glue is a good option. If you are fishing them wacky you cna use an o-ring or split ring on it where you put the hook between the ring and the bait not putting it in the bait, or just use a twist tie. Twist it around the bait, cut off the extra and you are good to go.

i like the twist tie idea ;D

Me too. I can't take credit for it though-I read it in Bassmaster-I think-I know I read it somewhere.

See I don't have the money to even buy tiki sticks because whenever I go I catch about 60 to 70 bass a day that would use up a crap load of senkos and tikis
I like to use the good ones when I am somewhere like on vacation or in a tournament.

oh yeah, if you t-rig it......take a tooth pick and run it thru the worm and eye of the hook, then cut off the extra parts on the sides.....got that from JB 8)
