Wacky-Neko Ring FAQ
Why do I need the Wacky-Neko Ring?
The Wacky-Neko Ring adds weight to increase your wacky worm’s sink rate. With a floating worm like the Wacky Alien, it helps the bait sink at the right speed to get those tentacles moving. On a traditional sinking worm, it adds a little extra speed to help your presentation stand out from the weightless stick baits bass see so often.
The unique design also lets the hook pass through the ring, helping your soft plastic last through more casts and landed fish than traditional hook-through-plastic or rubber-ring rigging.
