I used to buy the clear silicone bands, but that company seems to have gone out of business or they’re really hard to find so I bought clear silicone rubber tubing off of Amazon for about six dollars for 10 foot piece and I cut them about a quarter of an inch wide with scissors I have an endless supply and they work better than anything and the clear Matches any bait you throw you hook through the band and the worm and then the band again they won’t tear the worm they stay on longer I’ve caught up to 10 or 12 fish on one bait I also use paneling nails from Home Depot. You get about 500 in a box pretty cheap, and I cut them in half with a pair of wire cutters for my weights. And they have ridges all the way down the length of the nail they stay in your worm without having to use superglue.
that is incredible! congrats that is a mega bag of spots! what was your biggest fish? Lanier is a special lake and has been showing out. we were on lake Russell this past weekend and although fun it is just not the same.
I totally agree with you! The Neko has almost replaced my shaky head! As far as bands go, I mainly use the vmc since you have option on hooking for wacky vs neko. I have been experimenting lately with the new geecrack neko hack. It’s creative, but not sure if better than vmc or the dbl band you’re doing. Jury still out. 👍
Very cool, thanks for the feedback! The vmc crossovers have been the best I have found but they are not perfect. I have not tried the geecrack. Will definitely have to experiment with them. I’m in the same boat - still looking but that vmc is solid. It’s really close.
@@campetro10 oh I meant to also say, if I really wanna get finesse with the Neko, I put on a bold bluegill robo worm using a small vmc band. Only problem is there, you pickup more smaller fish including bream. 😂
appreciate it. absolutely, i still throw the shakey head a bunch. gotta have a little drama in the title! haha. we just did serious damage on the shakey head at our last tournament on lake Russell. definitely drew a bigger class bite than the Neko on that day. still belongs on the deck of the boat.
i have not personally because the roboworm is smaller in diameter. i would definitely look at a true neko weight though if using a roboworm and im sure it would work.
i have not but its actually on my list of things to purchase next time i hit the tackle shop. i thought they looked like a great solution as well. ill give an update once i use them for a bit.

Vmc cross over rings and the plier work for me
That is literally my next option to try. Looking forward to giving them a whirl
Use a screw lock too wacky rig your bait.
Great idea!
won the hammond's tournament this past weekend with 23.78lbs of spotted bass, one of our key fish came on a neko rig

@@campetro10 biggest fish in the bag was 5.80 on Scott’s scale, I agree lanier is a special place!

VMC crossover system with clear bands is the way to go i wont use anything else.
excellent thanks! that sounds like the best system based on everyones input.
Who makes that double ring? Great video but there’s definitely a place for the Shakey.

I use heat shrink
Great video like all your videos!
Has anyone tried a roboworm?
Absolutely but different weights
i have not personally because the roboworm is smaller in diameter. i would definitely look at a true neko weight though if using a roboworm and im sure it would work.
🔥🔥🔥
G7 weights band pliers or Vmc crossover pliers and bands
great suggestion, ill pick some up to try them out. thanks for the recommendation! always looking for a better system.
Cam have you tried out the VMC crossover ring and pliers? I have been tempted to try that. Looks like a real good setup

@@campetro10 Great. Saw a bunch of the Elite pros at Toledo bend were using it
@@cliff1422 well that might be your answer. those guys are the best in the world i am sure they are using it for a reason. im excited to try them out.
Definitely the juice
