I got mine from a place called Fastenal. Look in the phone book, there's probably one that's close to you. I just bought 500 o-rings for under $6.00.

I heard a guy speaking about using cut up straws. I havent done them yet, but it would work just the same. Straws are free from the local 7-11 :lol: :lol:

the money deal is to use two orings and criss cross them for better hook positioning and more hook bite...... try it you will like it..... the straws are a pain to deal with you will see.....

Not a problem, glad I could remind you. Make sure to take one of your flick shake worms in. They'll let you open some packages and find the best size.

The straw thing is awsome! Make sure to cut them wide so you can put the hook through the staw for a better hold. :wink: If you are going to use a thin worm like a regular robo-worm usa just your average sized straw. If its a thicker worm use a straw from Jack in the Box. Those are the thickest I have found yet.

It has always been my impression (and from what I have seen)that the flick shake worm needs to be perpendicular to the hook (like a T) to get the good action out of it. If you run an O ring, that makes the worm run parallel with the hook/jig head. Its diffrerent for a senko cause its just a hook. The flick shake is worked with a tiny jig head (that sits on the bottom)and thats where the "flick shake" "fluttering"action comes from.

that is why you run two o ring and criss cross them..... you put your hook where the orings cross....

how many casts does that last ........
The original rig was threw the worm. Sure you can try and save a few worms with your O rig, but the Jackall guys I know wont use O-rings

I dunno all I know is if you hook it right through the worm they dont last for crap! I went though two packs in five hours! That with throwing other baits between. Ill try anything thats going to save me 5.00 a pack!

I have been using the flick shake for quite some time and there is no need for an o-ring. It is in the jig head that you use, trust me I throw this worm every time I fish.


Did some one say Pepperjigs??????????? They work with this bait!!

Jackall has a new 6.8 Flicke shake worm coming out in a few more weeks. It is also thicker than the 5.8 and has a lot more action.
