Lure Rigging Mistake Costing You Fish (Underwater Proof)

Most anglers focus on lure color and size…
But overlook one of the simplest strike-killers: rigging.
One big mistake is often after a few casts, not the initial rigging…
And the difference underwater isn’t subtle.
In this video, we’ll take you underwater to see exactly how soft plastics behave when they’re rigged correctly vs incorrectly…
And why it can cost you fish.
Watch below to see how fast your lure can go from perfect to useless.

Featured Gear:
- Lure 1: 2.0 (The Original Slam Shady)
- Lure 2: Prawn USA Junior
- Hook 1: Hoss Round Eye Jighead
- Hook 2: Hoss Helix Hook
- Bundle: Ultimate Spring Bundle
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- A lure that’s not perfectly straight will lose its natural action
- Most rigging issues happen after a few casts, not the initial setup
- Sliding, bending, or twisting creates unnatural movement
- Spinning lures can cause line twist and turn fish away
- Regularly checking your lure can lead to more consistent strikes
