Great video! Something I would suggest is using o-rings when you’re wacky rigging. They help you keep your worms so you’re not going through them like crazy.
I use a 6'6" ML Bill dance panfish series rod. And a 7'0" ML, favorite fishing Rod. Both are fast action, and the lure weight would be 1/32 to 1/8th ounce.
Good video and info I will try searching with minnows first. Then Texas rig my plastic . I usually start with a beetle spin. But that does not always work.
