E2, you mentioned that this technique is for clear water. What is the best technique to use in stained high pressure lakes with a little wind. Shallow and offshore? Could you do a show on the best way to fish that?
Went out at lunch today. Caught a 3- & a 2-pounder at the Occoquan River regional park boat ramp docks in about 10 casts using a wacky rig. Missed at least 2 bites. Largemouth Fishing has been difficult on the Potomac the last few weeks...I’m convinced.
I've been using that rig for years,. When my gfriend is with me, that's what I set her up with she's caught some big fish and the good thing about it is she doesn't have to set the hook they hook themselves.
Enjoyed the show where can we get that band and what brandI have never used them because of the way the hook was pointed Thanks for your video as always
So, you kinda like that bait huh? Lol - Dude. I LUV that rigging method with the pliers! Sick!! I'm old school Texas rigger & haven't gone whacky YET but this vid might get me to do it! 8lb test? Not ready for that yet! Lastly, I appreciate the respect you show the Bass!! Few other than Bill Dance do that now-a-days! Kudos! New sub here just for that!!
Hey Edwin I’m just wondering if pools 7-8-9 in la crosse met the minimum requirements for water clarity or if there was a different deal happening when you won up here? Love all your content keep it coming please!
Edwin, I fish my worm weightless most of the time but it is texas rigged. I will give this a try and I'm sure it will catch more fish. Another awesome project e video Edwin. 🐟🎣
Gotta say I’ve turned the notifications to “all.” No joke man I learn so much from your vids and I’ve got my buddies watching them now. Keep it up we appreciate it.
I wacky rig it with circle hook drop shot with a 1/32 all the time sometimes depending on the wind I will up the weight 2 colors only green pumpkin and black
Your getting as good on screen as you are on the water..!! 😄 thank you so much for all the information you pass on to us..!! I look forward every week for new videos ...!!!
I often wonder why I even bother with bringing anything else. Just a single rod and a pack of stickbaits would more often than not result in a more successful day than my usual junk fishing approach.
Awesome video very informative and entertaining! ! Definitely enjoy watching someone get as excited about catching a fish as you do! Sorry but have to say this you jinxed yourself lol! Love a wacky rig! Finally broke the 2lb mark with it. I know small for you all but for me I broke my goal for my lake. The water is never clear always stained.I use heat shrink instead of an o-ring when I have it! Again thanks for the awesome video I look forward to Tuesday evenings! Oh BTW you would not even need to ask it would be sitting either in my hands or on the deck ready to go. I have a buddy that is pure power fishing and when he misses I throw back slow and hook up. Sorry long winded! Awesome video!
Thanks again for a great video. Love your stuff. My son and I still follow you on MLF. He watches from Kuwait, he will watch from US soon. We text back and forth about the tournament’s. You are an inspiration. Would still like to meet you. Thank You again. Good Luck and God Bless you and your family.
For a spinning reel on wacky isn’t not bad. You’re not taking up line terribly quickly on the actual retrieve so your concern is the fish running at you on the bite. You could get into a higher gear ratio but then you may retrieve that bait faster than you intend. Either way you choose you either have to be conscious of something, it’s just whatever is easiest for you to manage.
Thank you brother for the knowledge!!🙏
Great video Edwin!!!!
In mid Michigan, this is my go-to bait for July!
Great video
Just been crushing on yum dinger all of May!
Edwin another great video. I don’t fish a wacky rig that often but I think I will a lot more often now
man ur smashing em . where you at ? good stuff
I will need to try this . Fantastic video. Thank You.

Love fishing that bait in Southeast Texas. It never fails. Loved the video, be great to fish 1 of the project E lakes with you,

It doesn't matter what brand you buy a stick bait is a day saver . Many times for this guy
Edwin….I can’t find those O rings anywhere with the hole to put the hook through….can you give us a link to where we can get them…thanks
What a great video! So much to be learned, Thanks Man.

Love all your content keep it coming please!
Edwin, absolute clinic! I loved the video and I always love how excited you get!
How do you do that with your GoPro?
A purple worm a wacky
Awsome video.
Great video! 👍👍
Barny fife! Hah I’ve been trying to figure out who you remind me of for days. Great videos dude keep them coming.
Maybe he should have used this bait down in lake Griffin...🤔😬
Great video. What about the must have for dirty water? Local reservoir at best is 2ft. Usually 1ft or less.
I fish a very pressured lake and I'll throw the reaction stuff but catch most of the fish on a wacky stick bait. :-)
Thanks Edwin, hows the home lake coming along? Any progress?
Edwin appreciate the tips!
Wacky Max Scent white around shad spawn works.
The intro is pretty cool
Edwin, I fish my worm weightless most of the time but it is texas rigged. I will give this a try and I'm sure it will catch more fish. Another awesome project e video Edwin. 🐟🎣
What size VMC Crossover band is that your using? 7mm? 6mm? 5mm? Thank you in advance love the videos
I’ve used the bands for the last year and a #5 works best on a trick worm and a #7 for a 5-6” yum dinger. Hope this helps👍
Great video E! Great information, awesome how you explain the how to's will tie one on next time on the water
The only spinning rod I carry with me and this is what is tied on.... and you see why.
Nothing better than catchin a new video from E2 to start the day. From fishing to just being a good dude overall you are the GOAT
Yes Sir Edwin !! I will and I DO HAVE IT TIED ON AND READY FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE SEASON .. CHICO 🐟 TX
We love your videos keep them coming . We’re learning so much!
Edwin, another great video buddy. You are the man, keep up the good work! Thanks again.
ABSOLUTELY love the wacky rig. Great in depth explanation, plus the enthusiasm you bring to your videos. Thank you Edwin!
Great video Edwin, absolutely love your passion for fishing and teaching! keep up the great work. God bless.
Thank you Edwin i always have a wacky rig set up on the deck my security bait
Fun lesson and personality plus!! Thanks for all you provide us!🎣🎣
Gotta say I’ve turned the notifications to “all.” No joke man I learn so much from your vids and I’ve got my buddies watching them now. Keep it up we appreciate it.
Being sort of new at freshwater fishing, I want to know if you can fish it in stained water? Very informative video.
The Top Of The Mountain intro is by far the best intro on TH-cam.
I wacky rig it with circle hook drop shot with a 1/32 all the time sometimes depending on the wind I will up the weight 2 colors only green pumpkin and black
Thank you again Edwin ! I really enjoy your screen presence and information ! Very helpful and very applicable knowledge !
I'm gonna hit the docks at Travis this weekend using this!
Your getting as good on screen as you are on the water..!! 😄 thank you so much for all the information you pass on to us..!! I look forward every week for new videos ...!!!
Edwin you so inspire me to fish. The other morning I watched one of your videos . Then went fishing and BAM fish on
That was incredible how you caught so many big fish. I can't wait to try this. THANK YOU!
Got to say u bring a lot of info as always. I just started fishing the wacky way and I’m loving it. Ty for the tips and ty for all the videos u make.
I felt a little TiK
Wacky😜
Great day of fishing!!
Thanks for the info, education and of course the entertainment!! I love all you videos! Keep fishing band keep em coming!😁👍
I often wonder why I even bother with bringing anything else. Just a single rod and a pack of stickbaits would more often than not result in a more successful day than my usual junk fishing approach.
Would this technique be as effective with a 7’ medium spinning rod?
You're my new favorite pro. Just watched you on Larry Melton Jr's channel.
Awesome video man. A technique I've never tried. After this video you bet I will! Haha
how do three people dislike that?
Always have one tied on v&m Texas smoke.
“That is awesome you tub of lard” “Thank you girl!” Only applies to fishing I found out the hard way 🤣
All joking aside, another great vid Edwin!!
When I take my daughter out and I want to make sure she catches em, I skip docks with a wacky worm and it never fails
Edwin, You make this look to darn easy..... Love Project E.

Great video Edwin. Love the wacky rig. God Bless. Praying for Chris Houston.
What is the name of the rings? Where can you buy them? Another great video!!
evers 2024
This man is legendary! 👏
Even though science tells us bass can't see blue, green pumpkin blue flash is one of my confidence colors too! 😆
Thanks again for a great video. Love your stuff. My son and I still follow you on MLF. He watches from Kuwait, he will watch from US soon. We text back and forth about the tournament’s. You are an inspiration. Would still like to meet you. Thank You again. Good Luck and God Bless you and your family.
I found band sorta like this on tackle warehouse. They just aren't as wide and the one you got.
Yes sir love the wack rig!!! We won caddo tournament in March wacky style!!!! Love the show keep it up.
Hey guys man. I love it. I'm gonna start saying that all the time now.
I used to always laugh at the guys tournament fishing my home lake, because ever single one of them was throwing a wacky rig🤣
Tried your swimming worm from the last one and caught some fish, youre the man
What speed reel is that? I feel like my 5.1 is a little slow for pulling in slack
For a spinning reel on wacky isn’t not bad.
You’re not taking up line terribly quickly on the actual retrieve so your concern is the fish running at you on the bite. You could get into a higher gear ratio but then you may retrieve that bait faster than you intend. Either way you choose you either have to be conscious of something, it’s just whatever is easiest for you to manage.
I bet Jimmy got goosebumps when you gave that old girl some sugar lol
