How To Fish The Damiki Rig – Winter Bass Fishing

Have you used the Damiki Rig? Its a great technique to catch Winter Bass! When nothing else is working the Damiki Rig has a unique fall and appearance that lures bites in difficult conditions. If you’re desperate for a bite you can rely on this rig to come through in a pinch. Come along as Tim shows exactly how to use it this Winter.

The rig is designed with perfect balance. When fished vertically it sits perfectly level below the boat with a unique look that nothing else can mimic. When cast into deep water the bait has a spiral fall that bass simply can’t resist! On a tight line it glides along with no motion at all but fish can’t resist it! No matter how you fish it, it has a place in the arsenal. We’ll follow this video up with a more in-depth fishing video down the road but we wanted to make sure you guys were aware of the technique during the cold water months.

Below is a breakdown of the baits and gear we use to fish the Damiki Rig. It was designed to be fished with its own bait as a trailer but there are some other great alternatives that we’ve listed as well.
