How to Rig Live Shrimp for Fishing - Most Effective Technique!
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Here is a great in depth tutorial on how to rig live shrimp for fishing. Shrimp is one of the most effective baits you can use, rigging them naturally will help trigger the most aggressive strikes while helping your hook up ratio. For the first rigging technique, I demonstrate how to hook a live or whole shrimp in the horn, after the gaglion. This technique allows for complete range of motion and give the most natural presentation without harming the shrimp.
The second technique is to run the hook from bottom to top through the tail and out the back. This is a great technique to hide the hook and give a great flicking motion from the shrimp. I also favor this rigging style because of the ease of casting.
The third technique is similar to the second but instead of running the hook through the bottom to the top you hook the side of the tail.
Lastly, probably the most gruesome is removing the tail and running the hook through the shrimp and pulling the barb out of the under side of the shrimp. This way the bait cast well but also allows scent to flow through the water column attracting larger prey.

Hi Josh, great video. A suggestion for the fourth method. Instead of having the hook exit through the bottom of the shrimp, make the hook exit through the top of the shrimp. This keeps the body in a straight line which is more natural as the shrimp moves through the water.

Thank you. Right to the point.
Thank you.Vids I've watched just show the hook behind the head or spine.Im going to try the tail hook.
Thanks for sharing!
Great vid Joshua! When sight fishing for bonefish in Miami we use your last method with a smaller hook. The difference is once you have slid the hook through the tail we turn it around and hook it into the body like a Texas rig. It prevents the hook from snagging the grass in shallow water.

When there is medium size shrimp..I use your 3rd method...use two prawns / shrimp facing each other with their own legs trying to fend each other off.. this in turn keeps the bait very reactive on the hook .. hook up rates are alot more on barra & jacks 😎🇦🇺👍👍👏👏
Great video exactly what I needed ty!

andy ho we have fun too but there is no reason to be silly on a tutorial. Thanks for watching.
When targeting sheepshead the last way you showed works best. Using a longer shank hook. An old lady I used to come across fishing often always did that with live shrimp. I thought she was crazy and she’d start filling the cooler right away..

Which way do you use the most under a cork? And if you’re not using a popping cork do you go Texas or Carolina rig with a weight or just use the shrimps weight?
Capt. Joshua, I am guessing that except for the claws and a few other differences, the same technique could be used for crayfish for your northern subs! Will have to try it this summer as it does not look like we are going to have a spring! Tight Lines and Happy Times Buddy! 👍👍👍🙂

Best ways to hook a shrimp....then catch a cat fish. Very nice man, we should go fishing together. I'm in the Tampa bay area too lol
Once I hook the shrimp through the horn, can I put a tight clear rubber band around it so it won’t fall off? I’m usually casting 70 yards with my bay pen rod.
That shrimp is so cohoperative

He’s now trained to use explosives to catch fish.
Consider this... I hook my shrimp from under the head and up through the horn. This way the hook is not laying down on one side sometimes causing the shrimp to roll to one side. Balanced... and this way you can also reel the shrimp in as slow a possible and the shrimp will look like its swimming towards you. Like a very slow lure. Then if you feel the shrimp kicking, stop and wait.. repeat
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...
It doesn’t matter how you hook the shrimp the darn catfish will eat it.

Does this work if you have to cast a long distance? Would the shrimp rip apart?
Wonder of this works for grass shrimp as they're much smaller size...
