- Every bass fisherman should know how to fish a shaky head. We're going to give you the beginner basics, as well as some very advanced information on head shapes, line ties, worms, and creatures. Whether you're a brand new angler or a tournament pro, there is information here that will help you catch more fish!
If you just want to catch a few fish on a shakey head, a basic head and a 6" straight tail worm will almost always get the job done. But if you're ready to jump down the rabbit hole with us, we look at 4 factors when choosing our heads. The head style, the hook brand (and shape), the keeper system, and the line tie. When it comes to baits we look at bait size, color, tail shape, and ability to float.
Below you'll find links to the exact baits and heads discussed in the video. We've included sizes, exact color recommendations, and any other pertinent information to help you make your best selections. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

#bassfishing #shakyhead #worms
I always like Tim and Matt's videos. Very good detail every time. I would really like to see more of these technique specific video's with actual footage showing everyone how exactly you fish the technique you are presenting. Words describing what you do in certain situations are great but real live footage showing us the technique really makes a difference IMO. You both do this in some of your videos, which I really learn a lot more from those. Thanks for all you guys do for the sport!!
I have learned so much about bass fishing from watching the channel. I appreciate the time you take to show tactics and gear the to use. Again thank you so much
Me myself and I definitely needed this Shakey Head tutorial!!
The longer the better. Nothing makes me wanna try new things like a nice long video with everything all inclusive! You guys always help motivate me to go get on the water! I mainly bank and kayak fish so all these tips and tricks help me make sure I catch fish each time I go out. Thanks so much!!
That was another solid video. I laughed at the fact you had to show a picture of “Free Willy “ because some might not get the reference way to make me feel old Tim.
Been fishing my entire life. Learn more from this site than any other. Great how you link everything in the comments also.
Thanks Tim, Shaky head fishing has become one of my favorites lately. Now I've got some new ideas.
He says hopefully "hopefully I didn't breeze by those head types too quickly"...dude you just spent like 16 min talking about them 🤣🤣 seriously though thats why I LOVE this channel. You and Matt do such a great job explaining techniques and products. You two have made a huge difference in my entire approach to fishing.
I’ve been looking for this all summer long!! Thank you
I’m going to try using other plastics other than the typical straight tail worm. That’s a really good idea
Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to educate us on shakyhead.
Great explanation. Thank you. I caught my first shakey head fish this year using a finesse shakey head rig that an experienced friend showed me.
IMO the Picasso Rhino head works best in cover because the line tie is recessed. Using it with the hook exposed kind of defeats one of its strengths.
This is crazy. I’ve been wanting to get into shakey heads, but wasn’t sure how to go about it. Then this video popped up. Get out of my head!
Thanks Tim. the INFO was a great 👍. HELP i can't wait to GO fishing and catch a waper
I herd that. you said "y'all" Already becoming a southern boy. I dig shaky head fishing and you covered it all.
I wish I could fish with you guys I love watching your videos I learn so much from them. Thank you
Thanks Tim, really informative. These detailed videos makes it super easy to share with our friends that are just getting into bass fishing 🐟
Some of my biggest bass have come from a mondo worm on a shakey head in mid to late summer. 👍🏻🎣
Shaky head is my confidence lure. If nothing else work, the shaky gets me bit. Black or green pumpkin 4” worm, nothing heavier than 3/8oz. Magic
