Weedless

[Don]

Melvin and Rest: I want to replace a treble hook on one of my spare Kastmasters. I want to use a large bait hook. How would you you make it weedless?

Why? Are you going to put something on the hook?

Not likely but I want to use them in Coontail and near or over lilies. If I were to use a trailer then I would use a EWG worm hook. What are your thoughts?

Just get the Johnson Silver Minnow. There is one in the pic

I have them but theyre not sexy like the Kastmasters, lol. Plus I'm after smaller fish.

Have you had success with the Johnson Minnows?

Never used them much. Got some pickerel and a bass or two.

This photo is from Yamamoto's site. Does anyone use weed guards on their wacky presentation and have you ever put the guard under the worm as shown here.

Looks like a new one to me.

Never seen it before. Doesn’t seem like it would be weedless and so I wonder if it was a photo accident. Might work in April for leftover cabbage beds.
