Lazer Sharp Wacky Worm O-Rings

These are the reason a wacky-rigged worm lasts more than two fish. Instead of running the hook through the plastic, which tears out almost immediately, you slide an O-ring onto the middle of the bait and hook under the ring. The plastic never gets pierced, so one worm can survive a dozen fish instead of going in the trash after a couple. There's a second benefit that gets overlooked: the bait hangs looser and pivots freely instead of being pinned to the shank, so both ends flutter harder on the fall. Small, cheap, and the single biggest thing you can do to cut what you spend on soft plastics in a season.
