See, I use a 1/16 or 1/8oz weighted wacky hook but the worms I use (still rockin the sick sticks!!!) are neutrally buoyant and were designed for use with a weighted hook. I just find it gives the worm a bit more action. When using the 1/16 head, the fall rate is painstakingly slow to me so I have no issues with it.

I've never used the o rings but maybe will consider it this year. I've lost a few baits on the casts and have lost a few more when they get bit so hopefully an I ring will stop that from happening.

I started using a shrink wrap last year. I also heard electric tape will do the trick. I still pierce the hook through the senko, otherwise i find the fish still take them. But I finding i can get 5+ fish on one senko sometimes. I suppose you could super glue the senko in the shrink wrap
