A great technique for getting results in lakes where the fish get a lot of pressure and have seen about every type of bait you can imagine. Shallow, deep, around docks and even when the fish are on the beds, the ShakyHead rig may not be the go-to tactic under normal conditions, but it's highly effective when the going gets tough. It's a unique style that requires a special rod action to impart a quiver into a small finesse worm mounted on a relatively light jighead by subtly shaking the rod tip. It's kind of like drop-shotting right on the bottom. The rod has a little stiffer feel because the real flex starts about 4-6 inches from the tip-top, creating a unique action so you can shake the jig/worm combination without moving the bait a lot. It takes some practice, but it can really make a difference in your success rate. There are two different rods available ... a 1-power (mag-light) and a 2-power (mag-medium). There's a GLX spinning rod in the 2-power model and there's a casting rod in the 2-power "fiber blend technology" model. When the fish are hugging the bottom in tight cover, this will get in their face like no other technique.

This rod is designed to fish the shakyhead
rig in clear water where lighter line is needed to be successful. It's also
the right choice for shallow water presentations... less than 20-feet. The
soft tip, combined with the extra fast action, develops a lot of power for a
quick, smooth hook-set and has plenty of power for moving big fish to the
boat.

A pair of really nice, medium power finesse
spinning rods designed specifically for fishing the ShakyHead rig in lakes
where there's a little more cover or in deep-water situations where you need
a little heavier line and slightly heavier jig set-up to maintain contact
with the bottom. the "fiber blend technology" model is pretty
sensitive, but the GLX version is noticeably lighter and more sensitive. Both
rods have surprisingly powerful butt-sections for positive hook-sets and fish
fighting control.
