Re: Need help with “wack a sack” wacky jig
Hey Bustout, the way the Wack A Sack is designed is to be tied directly to the weight and infront of the hook. This will keep the weight as the ballast and the hook in an upright position. That way you can nose hook as well as wacky rig your favorite plastic baits.

Re: need help mercury optimax
Some of the Mercs are sensitive to the exhaust, try messing with your PVS vent plugs, some engines need to have larger vents to allow the exhaust gas to provide slip to get things up and rolling. The next thing it could be is a coil, that will give you the same symptoms.
Good Luck,
