Neko Rigs
The neko rig is often described as a crossover between a wacky rig and a shaky head. All you need is a stick bait, nail weight, and a hook. Although the hook goes in the middle of the worm, by placing the nail weight in the worm will make the worm stand up more vertically than just a simple wacky worm. This weight allows the angler to fish this bait at deeper depths and give the fish a bait they have never seen.
