When NOT to use wacky rigged senkos?

[Slyster]

This is my first summer using senko plastics. I have had SUCH success this summer on rigging them wacky rigged... I wonder when a change is good?

I have not yet tried any other rigging styles... when should one switch to Texas or Carolina rigs or others that I don't even know about....? What conditions warrant these?

I have had my wacky rig success in clear waters around 6-9 feet in weed flats. If I go deeper or shallower or in adverse weather patterns should one NOT use wacky rigs? Or is wacky rigging the way to go these days all summer long?

I find wacky rigging to be amazingly weedless btw!

If you can get away with wacky rigging, then there is no reason to change. That way offers the most enticing action. But if you run into weed or depth problems, then you may have to look into other ways to rig it.

I haven't found a reason to switch to a Texas or Carolina rig if riggin' it Wacky seems to work... *shrug* I've had the most success that way.

Sly, I think I owe you a beer or some good tips.

After you posted some good info on a northern lake recently, I read your post about wacking rigging yesterday before going out last night &, after a fruitless first half hour, figured I'd heard lots of people talking about wacky & tried it. My friend & I pulled in 14 bass in less than three hours. Nothing else produced (except a lone bass on a jitterbug). I'll be working the wacky again, & my buddy's a convert too!
