How To Hook Shrimp The CORRECT Way

Ойын-сауық

Want to know how to hook a shrimp on a jig-head like the pro guides do?
Click here to see the full blog post: www.saltstrong.com/articles/h...
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.

    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.

    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.

Every time we’d throw the line in we’d get a bit just to pull it up to be disappointed and our shrimp gone. Maybe there guy didn’t know any better OR he knew a way to get people coming back for more. Either way thank you for this helpful tip. We will definitely try this tomorrow and hopefully catch some fish.
