- Want to know how to hook a shrimp on a jig-head like the pro guides do?

Here's the deal:
It's a known fact that shrimp are one of the best live (or dead) baits for saltwater fishing. Why? Because pretty much every predator fish in the ocean eats shrimp (kind of like humans - we all love shrimp - except maybe vegans... they aren't quite right...).
But it's also a known fact among fishing guides that shrimp are one of the most likely baits to be rigged incorrectly (by all anglers - not just noobs).
So yes, there is a correct way to rig shrimp (and an incorrect way - that Capt. Mark Johnson covers in the video as well).
Here are the key things to remember when rigging shrimp (either on a jig head or a fishing hook) the correct way:
1) pinch the end of the tail off first
2) thread the hook through the shrimp's body starting at the tail end (where the tail used to be)
3) ALWAYS make sure the hook point comes through the top of the shrimp's body (never the legs)
4) cast and catch
5) repeat
Remember, legs facing out is the way to go.
Any other shrimp rigging tips that have worked well for you?
Let us know down in the comments.

Salt Strong I’ve been looking for that Jighead. Who makes that ??? Can’t find it.
That shrimp went through hell. Lol
He was still alive
Wonder how many vegans he pissed off
😂😂😂
Shrimp lives matter!! Great info. Can't wait to use this technique in Cuba tomorrow. Do frozen and thawed shrimp stay on the hook as good?
@@shompzz live shrimp or nothing at all
shrimp is like "WTF let me get eaten already."
Ikilled ColMustard best comment of all of these!!
Ikilled ColMustard shrimp be like “this is messed up”
This is an awesome tip. This also keeps the shrimp on the hook rather than easily losing it on cast
Since the beginning of time all the shrimp that have lived and died how unlucky this guy was to have been here and now for this video 😂
Its the price he paid for fame 😂
The shrimp “my brother and sisters said this was supposed to go smoother”
That shrimp was like “Father help?!” 😂
Thanks for the tip! I always lean towards squid for bait on the left coast because it’s hard for fish to steal, but I think I’m gonna try shrimp on my next outing.
All i could picture in my mind was this shrimp screaming in agony.😆
Go back to the salad bar and cry
😅I lost about 2 pounds of shrimp before I saw this video😢but no more afterwards😁this was helpful🗣📯THANKS🙌🏿🙌🏿
Good stuff as always saltstrong
I went to South Broward with you Mark! Thanks for the tips!
How to butcher ur bait...the CORRECT way!🤣🤣🤣
The only reason why I saw this video is to look at the coments .
Comments: no shrimps were harmed in the making of this video.
Me: BRUH
Thanks for the great explanation!
I literally ate lunch, watched this video, then went out on a fishing pier and did this, I caught a stingray. Then I put a pyrimid wait on the end of it to just let it sit and I swear I caught about 10 fish that day using a jig and live shrimp, my line broke like 7 times so I need a stronger line next time. Amazing experience and only way I’m going to ocean fish, when I’m on the lake I fish with a frog always works for my large mouth bass.
Great tip. Thank you for that.
Thanks! Perfect every time !
Love your videos and tips. Thanks guys. I'm gonna try this out in Estero Bay.
Heading out there now...how did you do?
Although it takes away the ability of the shrimp to kick, it is a great presentation in my opinion because shrimp tend to swim backwards get fleeing from predator fish. I like it.
Shrimp: let me be eaten for the God saké!
Great video but i couldn't wait to scroll to comments.
Very well instructed video.
Great video mate 👍
Thanks Buddy. I can't to get out there and try this!
Great video. Thank you!!!
This has to be the best video I’ve ever seen on how to hook up a shrimp
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice!!!! Thanks for sharing!
Great information, very helpful, thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment! Tight lines
@@Saltstrong your welcome
Great tips!
There were no shrimps harmd on the making of this video
Good fishing tutorial .. my friend .. useful
very useful information sir
thanks
He didn’t explain why the tail needed to come off. It’s like telling you to do it a certain way but not really explaining why it’s done this way. For everything else he did a Fantastic Job, with a good explanation on each of the methods.
It is much easier to rig the shrimp this way without the tail
Thanks for sharing your info bro....(Lumut MALAYSIA)
Pernah try ka? Saya pun dr lumut. Udang tak mati ke
Does it work with texas rig as well? Or just in a free line, no weight?
Straight murdered this thing
nice tips, but that will be dead bait not live bait.
Wa Seno surprisingly it will live for quite a while
Nice sir.nxt time i will try this tips.thanks
Hello there, I had a problem with hooking the live shrimp on top of it
head.(behind the horn) whenever I cast it, it slide off easily
from my hook and lost me quite a few live shrimp I don't what is wrong?!
I'm using gamakatsu octopus circle hook for it though...
Saludos desde Mexico.
What brand/size jig head are you using? I tried that technique today (7/29/2020) . My shrimp did not hook flat.
What size jig head are you using and are you in 2,8, or bottom fishing?
Good job bro!
great tips !
Good setup for dead shrimp, but rigging a live shrimp this way just doesn’t make any sense.
It depends what you are fishing for.
Sometimes I’ll do this for a bigger presentation to entice the bigger fish.
Ryan Kissee theres no correct way, whatever works best for the angler that particular time of day and what type of fish hes fishing for
I agree. People may argue, but your paying extra for live shrimp for a reason. To have them alive. Hooking a live shrimp even in the simplest way would still end up killing the shrimp over a short period of time. So ripping off part of the body and hooking the shrimp from tail to body doesn't help one bit of it living any longer.
Ryan Kissee of course it makes sense... smh how are you arguing with a man who does this for a living?? You don’t think he knows it works??? Smh
Seems like the best way when fishing for flounder. I use a variation but this seems better. Thanks!
Very nice presentation
Good business salt strong you taught me something man.
Awesome video
I have question recently started fishing and i have spinning set up i have jig hook but can i use that jig hook to hook bait it it has metall ball at the top with 15g weight
Great question! Make sure to ask this over in the Community (www.saltstrong.com/) where the coaches spend their time.
Now all I know is how to torture shrimp....I don’t even fish anymore i just set up my own SAW games for them....
Great video
I’m here because I kept losing bait lol. Kept getting stuck on the damn rocks. I did happen to catch 4 fish though which was good for my first time!
Better than a skunked trip!
Thanks for the tip.
No problem!
“Only one shrimp was harmed in the making of this video”
👍
Thanks for the tip, because of this, I was aple to catch a juvenile spottail shark, pretty rough guy to say the least.
Thanks man
What size jig are you using?
RIP lil Shrimp
Love this
Can I bait in a similar fashion with an octopus circle hook?
Same deal. I think its better and the shrimp may actually move n attract a fish
Thank you
justice for shrimp ..lol
awesome!!! thx
Can you rig that way for a popping cork?
Thanks for the question. You can go to our website to see the full blog post and comment there directly to the coaches who can answer your question. You can find it here: www.saltstrong.com/articles/how-to-rig-shrimp-on-jighead-video/
Why do you take the tail off? Could you not run the hook thru the hard part of the tail and help the shrimp stay on the jig better?
I was thinking the same thing...
I shrimo will spin you line when you retrieve it.
How would you rig a silverside
great video. tk
What size jighead is that?
This video is incomplete without showing the technique for fishing a live shrimp that is rigged in this manner. Do you fish it like a jig (slow retrieve and bouncing off the bottom) with the shrimp moving backwards??
Does it matter if the shrimp is alive or dead?
Torquemada would be proud 😊
u was wasting a live bait , this skill would better on dead shirmp
Dead shrimp would fall off live shrimp stays on better
@@Gio-nl7eg yes but for video purposes, a dead one would have been alot more humane
@@josephsevilla2501 it’s not about what’s humane it’s about what is effective. Like I said a dead shrimp would fall right off after jigging it a few times
@@Gio-nl7eg often, cooked prawns stay on much better than raw. I haven’t used live prawns so I guess I don’t know if live is better than cooked or vice versa.
@@someonesomewheredoingsomet505 fully cooked would likely rip/tear easier than fresh live shrimp
That's the way I do it ,with Gulp too.
That I may need to try that with gulp. Thanks for the tip. I think it is a waste of a good live shrimp to do it this way though. Fresh dead, sure.
@@rudyruiz9521 Only problem is Gulp shrimp are over $5 for six.
Beautiful
All these years and I had it wrong! No wonder my wife is always mad at me.
But if doing that on a long shank hook like a tenya , it will be very difficult
No shrimps were harmed in the filming of this video, lols ;)
thanks you
Hydrodinamic is not such a big word ... Is just the american school system sucks! LOL
Love the video tho ;-) Thumbs up!
Could u use this under a popping cork
Absolutely!
I cant wait to get out on the water and try this technique i do a lot of fishing on the laguna madre in Port Isabel TX and true when i hook up shrimp threw the horn i lose a lot of them to unwanted fish
Actually hook under the horn. The Bait will be super lively and will stay on
IMO the jig gives the shrimp a bigger presentation to entice bigger fish...
The shrimp commited crime and got tortured. Lol😂
How to torture a shrimp 101.
Alex Morales it’s already dead shortly after he took the tail off
SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN: Shrimp have NO FEELINGS!! "TORTURED"---Really???
Wow !
With so many "expert anglers" out there in TH-cam land saying they have the right way to rig a shrimp. It's confusing which is the best technique. Guess the phrase trial and error apply here for this novice.
My way is best, ha ha!
@@RadReelingFishing believe I asked this question because I saw one of your examples...thru the head. I've been using the thru the tail method w some success.
@@garyschuller6981 This video is very informative. It would do me some good to try different methods.
Yeah that's the correct way to kill a shrimp dude
Do you have a video of a better method? I'm always looking for a better way.
@@tedheglund1331 I just do it in the tail, don’t have a video but the shrimp will swim strong
Should have named this video how to make a live shrimp a dead shrimp
What size if jighead was that
Shrimp feel no pain. Like a boiling lobster.
Thanks for watching
U can do this with frozen shrimp too
Pretty cool, never seen em rigged like that
Let's hope PETA doesn't see this!
Shrimp got man handled
Buy live shrimp for killed it. Nice one.
That poor shrimp 😂😂😂😂
Is that a wire or fluorocarbon
It's a wire (fishing for big spanish mackerel that day), but of course it can be rigged with mono, fluoro, etc. Thanks for the comment!
Wire
The important thing is to do this gently
