G.Loomis BASS ShakyHead Rods

G.Loomis BASS ShakyHead Rods

A great approach for getting results in lakes where the fish get a lot of pressure and have seen about every type of bait you can imagine. Shallow, deep, around docks and even when the fish are on the beds, the ShakyHead rig may not be the go-to tactic, but it’s highly effective when the going gets tough. It’s a unique style that requires a special rod. It’s kind of like drop-shotting right on the bottom.

The rod has a little stiffer feel because the real flex starts about 4-6 inches from the tip-top, creating a unique action so you can shake the jighead/finesse worm combination without moving the bait a lot. It takes some practice, but it can really make a difference in your success rate.

There are two different power ratings available… a "mag light" version and a "mag-medium". There’s a GLX spinning rod in the mag-medium model and there’s a casting rod in the mag-medium, “fiber blend" model. When the fish are tight to the bottom, this will get in their face like no other technique!
