Shakey Head Worms - Tricks To Catch More Fish!! ( Underwater Footage!! )
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 вер 2024
- The shaky head worm is an awesome technique for Summer Bass! The technique catches BIG fish but it catches a lot of fish too! Most anglers have a few heads and a favorite worm or two but never realize just how effective this technique can be. When you start to understand the differences between worms, head designs, and hooks, you'll immediately start catching more fish!
Whether you throw a shaky head every trip, or just occasionally pick up a plastic worm, this video is going to help you hone your fishing skills. Subtle differences in plastic composition and worm shape make huge differences in the actions of the worms and how bass react to them.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits discussed in the video, along with the different heads and gear we use to fish these baits effectively. We've also included our favorite colors and sizes for each worm. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Great video, do you have a code for tackle warehouse? That supports you?
I was using a shaky head with a T-max worm just the other day on Lake Champlain. I caught a 5 pound lake trout! What the heck??
Dang. Y’all sleeping on the best bass fishing channel on UA-cam
I’m sayin.
@@christianturner2158 🤙 haha.
No one is sleeping on this channel anymore! Look how many subs they got boiii
@@toddpossumno one is sleeping on this channel anymore. Lol look at them subs they got boiiii
🤙lol. Ok
I’ve been killing them on the deception worm lately all while evading a heat stroke and the dehydration all by drinking high quality H2O.
Geecrack Bellows stick is a pretty awesome worm!
I don’t know about anyone else but today was some tuff fishing here in WV.
I was starting to think I was at the wrong lake.? Got to the water at 6:30 and it was close to 9:30 before I got my first bite. Caught a 4lb on a Spro little John 50 and 4 dinks on a jackhammer with a super fluke. By 1:30 I was burnt plum up and headed to the hacienda. I threw almost everything but dynamite 🧨 shakeyhead just didn’t pan out today either
Great video Tim, I learned a lot and look forward to using what I learned. Good fishing 🎣
The shakey head is my bread and butter. Zoom Magnum shakey head worm in green pumpkin or junebug wears them out
Tried an owner 5/0 ultrashakey head on hartwell last weekend with a slinko on it and it slayed... 😭
I feel like an XZone collaboration will be coming in the near future with how many baits of theirs y'all have been talking about so far this year 😅👍
Thanks to you guys I’ve bought more baits than I know what to do with, but I’m catching more bass each year. What I really like about this video is your emphasis on exactly how to work the shaky head. I already had a junebug T-Mac ready, but now I’m ready- thanks to my favorite UA-camrs.
This was a good video. Answered a lot of questions I had about shaky heads. Thanks for going down the rabbit hole on this subject. You guys have the best fishing channel bar none.
Always something new to learn with a TB video, amazing as always!!
Happy iCast 2023 everyone 👍!
Tim ,you need to try the twin lakes magnum trick or magnum finesse worms.They float up on a texas rig as good as most shakey heads but more weedless.
Best shakey head worm for me has been the Berkley Havoc Bottom Hopper 👌
i was look at buying the GLX 843c MBR but is the conquest 843c better which one should i buy?
Thanks!
Just resupplied my T mac’s and got sone #5 Canterbury Shaky shakes.
Hi Tim not a fan of the screw lock heads. Don't think it gives the worm to flex to set the hook when using light line. Heard Larry Nixon say something similar about the screwlock heads.
FYI Bitters soft plastics has got a new worm formula going with true floating baits in their most popular baits. Stopped in and loaded up with a bunch if them for a tournament this weekend on the Harris chain. Get em while theyre hot 🔥
what about paddle tail 6-8 inch worms...?
You guys are the best!! When the hooking worm on the Shakey head do you go all the way through the worm or keep the hook inside the worm? Thanks for all your info.
Great video, Tim! Your knowledge of finesse fishing is really impressive. I hope to get on you and Matt’s level one day. I noticed when you rigged the T-mac you didn’t poke the hook all the way through. Can you poke through and texpose or is it better to rig it like you did? I just don’t trust that the hook will penetrate the worm and the fish when it’s not texposed but I know it’s a lot more weedless that way. I have a hard time rigging straight shank hooks properly, the angle just seems weird to me. I prefer EWG style hooks but I know that doesn’t exist in a Shaky head.
I bury my hook tip to keep the weedless presentation and just remind myself to swing for the fences when doing this.
Zman smh heads with the Zman smh worms are absolutely deadly
Then Nrx 893c is my fav shakyhead rod
Getting boring. Just rinse and repeat old videos constantly.
@colingordon5950 thought I was gonna catch hell lol, but yeah it's true.
The snitch is my favorite shakey head.
I fish Duckamooga, but I do not catch anything. Probably because my Plopper is not Whopper.
How about rod suggestions?
Matt/Tim, do you have any sources for large 10-15" worms. Looking for sickle tail, mostly.
You suggest a 4/0 3/8 oz for the T Mac, but you did not say if you went up on the weight for the 5/0 DirtY jig finesse.hook. Would you go to a 1/4 oz. - this for fishing in Texas with large fish. Do you change color preference if water is say 5 feet with more light vs 10 feet+. Thanks. Nice recap of SH fishing.
Man Tim, been asking for years, here in Ohio (Ohio valley) where 9, 10lbs wins a tournament 3-5lber is big bass I'd love for you to do a video on it! Been a member prolly 10 years I'd just love to see a video of it! If I throw on a 9/0 shakyhead with a 15in round worm the fish AND fisherman are gonna laugh at me 😅😂 your videos are great tho bud! I pretty much throw UV speed craw
Hey guys, I need a recommendation on a good lighter (10-12 pound test) line to use that will take standing timber. I broke a monster off yesterday on Lake Russell. I couldn’t do anything with it!
The only thing I'd say is the spinning versus baitcaster is a personal preference Tim !
There's a majority of spinning setups used beachcasting, and they're used boat fishing ?
You just need the proper power rod and reel !
I come from a spinning background but I also love the baitcaster for Bass fishing.
I just wanted to point out there's room to move to a more powerful setup as well !
TVA lakes. When checking dam generating schedules for current. Do I look at the northern dam (discharge) or southern dam (pulling water), or both? Thanks.
Thanks for the video I’ve had great luck in summer here in Texas but really wasn’t sure about dragging or hopping
Great stuff. I picked up a shaky head for the first time bc of some of your earlier videos on it. Now I'm confident throwing it year round. Lots of choices out there, but don't sleep on the Trick Worm either - super productive.
Thank you. These underwater videos have helped me immensely keep them going. Add more underwater. Also, shakey head for smallmouth?
Hey Tim,
I live in South Central Mississippi, about an hour and a half from the Gulf Coast. I live on a man made Lake of about 120 acres with 4 other lakes of equal or greater size. The bottom of all of them is predominantly mud or clay with rip rap on the dams and a lot of docks and wood retaining walls.
I have been told that shakey heads don’t do well in weeds, but, I have good results when snapping them free.
What are your thoughts about fishing them in weeds of any type?
Excellent. Thanks for sharing. Like your wristband.
Eurasian Milford has invaded my lakes. Any suggestions on shaky head fishing.
Bruh, I'm super confused. Are you saying i shouldn't use night crawlers and a bobber whilst sitting in a lawn chair throwing Bud light cans on the shore?
No you should definitely keep doin that and stay out of the way and off a boat. And … bud light ? 🤣 you know why democrats don’t own boats ? Because there is no government program giving them away for free.
@@deadmanbasslord3156Keep politics out of TB comments. We all come here to get away from that crap.
Idk if the tip about the screw retainer being bent up, but I did it and pulled 2 3+lbs bass out of a city pond that I thought was dead due to over fishing. So, Thank you!!!
Tim this was a great video! Like how you guys do your individual thing to with different baits.. Two different perspectives in one channel!! Right ON!!
Are you guys excited to try out the new Yamamoto Oki Worm? I saw it on TW's What's new today and immediately thought of you guys
Do you have any medium price spinning combos like 400 in total for the rod and reel for wacky rigging
Why did I laugh when Matt was hung up and you were flossing your bass😂😂😂
Hey guys what's the worm in the underwater footage at 5:15 it's like a dark worm with blue stripe and it floats well
Crazy last weekend was my first time fishing with a shakyhead. Caught some pretty nice fish definitely bigger than what I usually catch. This video will really help me for this weekend
"promo sm"
Bending out hooks!?!? Is your drag broken?
This is new to me, I haven't tried Shakey head fishing 🎣 before. After watching this video I will give it a try on lake nockamixon I haven't seen too many people using this concept of fishing so I believe it might produce more hook ups for me I will watch a few more of your videos so I can incorporate your techniques into my fishing style.
You guys are bass killers. You guys make it look so easy. I love watchn you guys.
Thanks Tim!! Always a wealth of knowledge.
I get a ton of bites on the shakey head but they miss the hook most of the time. I feel like I need a trailer hook so there's not 5" of free worm.
Tim what you recommend other that the Scots Canterbury head? I have had it bend out on me multiple on bigger bass on 20lb floro. I love how the SC marries with the t-mac 7”. Is there a lil beefier hook available you would recommend. Thank you for ALL the lessons. Fat Fins my friends ✌🏻😎
Nevermind. I asked before I watched video. I seen the worms on the preview and Been wanting to ask. Thats crazy you covered that. Thats why TB’n IS MY FAVORITE YT Fishing Channel. Thank a mill. Fat fins my friends ✌🏻😎
I’d love to get into using shaky heads. Every time i do though I constantly have junk all over them. Weeds grass slime etc etc. and I end up going back to Texas rig worm lol.
Try adding a bobber stop so gunk doesn't build up on the knot and hit the jig head with a fish attractant (FA) or butter flavored cooking spray, hell, even WD40 will make a difference. Old timers use to use 40 as a FA. Try to avoid a gel-based FA; aerosol or liquid.
Great stuff thanks Tim!
If you guys haven't been told I wanna be the one to tell you. I don't think in the history of bass fishing no one has been more influential than you guys. You go to tackle warehouse and the best sellers are whatever you guys talk about. I go to Walmart or any place that sells fishing stuff and their inventory changes at least a little towards what you guys talk about. I watched a video about 3 years ago you guys talked about roboworms and I had never seen them or heard of them I go shopping everywhere for baits and never see them. You guys talk about it and boom they're everywhere. Almost every brand is making glide baits after all the years you guys have talked about them. You guys have branched out with different brands to make lures and tweak them. You guys have your own colors with lures. I mean you guys have revolutionized and expanded almost everyone's arsenal including my own. You guys are amazing.
I know, think how filthy rich these guys are! Big homesteads on the TVA now, new boats, best gear and baits for free!
Why not just use a swing head jig with a Net Bait T-Mac or any other shakey head worm? Is there any advantage to a conventional shakey head jig over a swing head jig? I’d think there’d be more action on the worm with the swing head jig.
The shakey head has an advantage in dropping straight down into our grass beds; vertical targets. The pivot or swing head jig, with its football head, is best as a moving bait that makes horizontal structure contact. Fish that may not want to move VS fish that pursue baits.
I use spinning reels for inshore fishing and with the right equipment they easily handle big redfish and snook. In this context Daiwa and Penn have much more robust drag systems than Shimano, especially the Vanford. There is no bass that can match a big snook for power and speed and the Daiwa Saltist, BG, Ballistic and even the Fuego all have readily beaten ten pound plus reds and snook. I fear bait casters designed for casting light lures would be gutted by ocean fish of this size and presumably big bass as well.
I look at drag strength too because my gear may have to do double duty with inshore salt water fishing. My bait casters are rated 22, 17, and 13 lb drag; the Daiwa being the weakest.
Awesome video Tim!!!
Thank you Tim.
Get video Tim
B lat SMH worm/head is the only shakey head that ive boated a fish on lol.
SMH worm flat out catches fish. That being said shakey head is one of my go to when the bite is tough
Yep
Rumor has it, savage gear is coming out with a 6' baby lochness monster paired with a 25/0 shakey head...big bass better watch out! 👍
