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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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...
@@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.
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??
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
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/
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.
@@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.
He is correct using live shrimp vs dead. Just like you can tell the difference between fresh sushi vs week old sushi. Dead shrimp will catch you more scavengers than quality fish.

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
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 😂
This has to be the best video I’ve ever seen on how to hook up a shrimp
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
😅I lost about 2 pounds of shrimp before I saw this video😢but no more afterwards😁this was helpful🗣📯THANKS🙌🏿🙌🏿
The shrimp “my brother and sisters said this was supposed to go smoother”
All i could picture in my mind was this shrimp screaming in agony.😆
Go back to the salad bar and cry
I went to South Broward with you Mark! Thanks for the tips!

It is much easier to rig the shrimp this way without the tail
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
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

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

How to butcher ur bait...the CORRECT way!🤣🤣🤣
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.
You guys are awful people tryin to show rigging and just torture a shrimp.
But im still go grab me a dozen shrimp an rig em this way tommorrow
Only a dozen???
Ronnie Haase they’re just showing the proper way to rig... not awful but okay.
Great video but i couldn't wait to scroll to comments.
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...
Does it work with texas rig as well? Or just in a free line, no weight?
Straight murdered this thing
There were no shrimps harmd on the making of this video
Shrimp: let me be eaten for the God saké!
What size jig are you using?
Does it matter if the shrimp is alive or dead?
That shrimp was like “Father help?!” 😂
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
Saludos desde Mexico.
The shrimp had tears in his eyes 🥹
nice tips, but that will be dead bait not live bait.
Wa Seno surprisingly it will live for quite a while
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.
What size jig head are you using and are you in 2,8, or bottom fishing?
What size jighead is that?
Thanks for sharing your info bro....(Lumut MALAYSIA)
Pernah try ka? Saya pun dr lumut. Udang tak mati ke
How would you rig a silverside
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??
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
Good stuff as always saltstrong
“Only one shrimp was harmed in the making of this video”
👍
Does this hurt the shrimp
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
Torquemada would be proud 😊
Nice sir.nxt time i will try this tips.thanks
What size if jighead was that
But if doing that on a long shank hook like a tenya , it will be very difficult
Thanks Buddy. I can't to get out there and try this!
Great video mate 👍
Great information, very helpful, thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment! Tight lines
@@Saltstrong your welcome
Very nice presentation
Why the steel leader?
This rig was built to target spanish mackerel: www.saltstrong.com/articles/ultimate-spanish-mackerel-rig/
Thanks for the great explanation!
What brand/size jig head are you using? I tried that technique today (7/29/2020) . My shrimp did not hook flat.
Love your videos and tips. Thanks guys. I'm gonna try this out in Estero Bay.
Heading out there now...how did you do?
Thanks for the tip, because of this, I was aple to catch a juvenile spottail shark, pretty rough guy to say the least.
Thanks for the tip.
No problem!
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
Good business salt strong you taught me something man.
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....
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!
Great tip. Thank you for that.
Can you rig that way for a popping cork?

Good fishing tutorial .. my friend .. useful
Shrimp literally comes a dime a million. He’s using it as bait guys. He’ll be dead soon enough🤙🏽 quit being such glitter fairy’s
He said "glitter fairies" omg that's just funny, don't care who you are!
U can do this with frozen shrimp too
Good job bro!
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
RIP lil Shrimp
Thanks! Perfect every time !
Very well instructed video.
great tips !

My way is best, ha ha!

@@garyschuller6981 This video is very informative. It would do me some good to try different methods.
i did everything right and the little fish still tear it apart and my hook comes back with no fish and no shrimp
very useful information sir
thanks
Praying I don't ever come back as a shrimp destined to be bait on a jighead by someone who watched this vid.
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.
justice for shrimp ..lol
Actually hook under the horn. The Bait will be super lively and will stay on
Seems like the best way when fishing for flounder. I use a variation but this seems better. Thanks!
No shrimps were harmed in the filming of this video, lols ;)
Hydrodinamic is not such a big word ... Is just the american school system sucks! LOL
Love the video tho ;-) Thumbs up!
what is the name ? of the one who sings that song at the end of the video
Nice!!!! Thanks for sharing!
great video. tk
Great tips!
Love this
All these years and I had it wrong! No wonder my wife is always mad at me.
My friend you murdered him. What pains did it go through once you cut of its tail
Jig head brand?
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???
Should have named this video how to make a live shrimp a dead shrimp
Great video
IMO the jig gives the shrimp a bigger presentation to entice bigger fish...
The shrimp commited crime and got tortured. Lol😂
Let's hope PETA doesn't see this!
Thank you
The important thing is to do this gently
Every video on TH-cam tells you to rig it differently… some say through the back of the horn, some say through the back…
We try to reach anglers of all levels, thanks for watching!
He is correct using live shrimp vs dead. Just like you can tell the difference between fresh sushi vs week old sushi. Dead shrimp will catch you more scavengers than quality fish.
Won’t this kill the shrimp though?
