Wacky rig for steelhead

[Big fat pike]

What worm is the best to wacky rig for steelhead and should i fish it under a float or like a traditional wacky rig or on a jig

[bandrus1]

I use berkeley trout worms under a float

[Big fat pike]

Regular hook or jighead

[Cpshelb17]

I like the raven trout worms on a bare hook under a float or thread the worm onto a voodoo jig head

Also will browns eat them too

[Cpshelb17]

Yes although I typically use them more in Erie tribs so I don’t really catch browns on them

Do you use a bobber as well or fish it the same way for bass

Bobber.....u need a bigger bobber for those heavy senkos

[Big fat pike]

Will those work for the average sized ones in sandy, irondequoit ect or just the trophy

[Jomat]

I don’t use them in trickles

That’s a big bait for big off color water I wouldn’t use it in small creeks like the ones u mentioned.
