Whether you are fishing for rainbow trout, smallmouth bass, walleye, or any other game fish, our fishing hooks are the best. There is absolutely no better way to hook a worm, leach, or synthetic fishing worm as bait when bait fishing. Bait rigs allow you to hook a live worm in an outstretched and natural manner the way God (and the fish) intended, which will increase your bite rates dramatically.
Whether you are drift fishing in a river or stream, still fishing on the bottom of a lake or pond, or even fishing under a bobber with a live or synthetic fishing worms, there is no doubt that JRW bait rigs are as effective as fishing hooks get. Having a second hook means that you will hook all of those "short striking" fish that would otherwise steal your bait. With our bait rigs not only does your bait appear more natural to the fish that you are trying to catch, but you will also hook up more often because of the second fishing hook. No matter how you slice it JRW bait rigs are a must have for anyone who is bait fishing with any type of fishing worm, whether that worm is alive or synthetic.

What? You don't believe us, just
look at what some satisfied
customers have said about
our gang hook bait rigs:
"I was happy to get the mail
and see your envelope before
the kids and I headed out to
the lake where we've been
fishing. If you remember,
the kids AND I were getting
a little frustrated with the
well schooled fish out at
the local lake. The past few
trips only produced frowns
and two dozen worms taken
without ONE catch. NOT
TODAY! REALLY...
I rigged all of our lines
with your gang hooks and it
was like a circus! Within 45
minutes we each had 7 or 8
reel-ins each! Just wanted
you to know...
Thanks again for the great
service and product."

"I didn't
realize how much lighter
line and smaller hooks meant
to me actually hooking up.
Now that I use JRW Gang
hooks I realize it and am
much more successful.
Thanks for the fast shipping
as well."
John Dwyer

"It never
occurred to me that I wasn't
presenting live worms in the
most effective manner.
Now I know how to present my
live worm thanks to your
hooks. Thanks a lot!"

Bait Rigs - The Best Way to Present Worms As Bait
When it comes to using live worms as bait for fishing there are some ways that are much more effective than others. This is what this article is about, bait fishing while using fishing worms as bait. For the most part I'm referring to live worms, although these bait rigs also work well with synthetic worms such as Berkley Power Worms or the "Alive" line of synthetic worms, which many time outproduce live fishing worms, believe it or not?
Let's start by discussing the worm itself. What does a live worm look like? How does it move? What do you suppose it smells like to the fish? All of these questions need to be taken into account, especially when you are bait fishing with these wriggly creatures.
Ever since human beings have been fishing with worms they have been hooking a worm onto a hook and calling it good, and for the most part this method has worked. But what if you want to take your worm fishing to the next level? What if you want to avoid fish "stealing" your bait all the time? And what happens when you're dealing with larger, more experienced fish? In all of these cases a better way of rigging your bait is called for.
The best way to present a worm as bait when bait fishing, whether that worm is live or man-made, is a set of gang hooks. A set of gang hooks is simply two small hooks, usually size 6 8 or 10, tied in tandem. This enables a worm to be presented in an outstretched and natural manner and helps to hook any 'short striking' fish. A set of gang hooks is one of the best bait rigs that can be used for worms.
With any bait rig where live bait is employed it's also important to think about any scent that might be on the bait itself. You see, any unnatural scents that are on your hands will transfer to your bait. If fish detect these unnatural scents, they are less apt to bite. For this reason you always want to make sure that your hands are free of any unnatural scents. This can be accomplished by using scent sprays to mask any unnatural odors or by simply rubbing your hands in a handful of dirt before baiting up.
The bottom line is that when you're using a worm as bait it should look and smell like a worm and not some balled up piece of wriggling meat, especially if you want to catch larger fish. Never forget, large fish don't become large by being stupid.
