Every time I catch a fish I lose my worm along with my nail weight. This is starting to get expensive. My setup is a VMC Crossover Rings size 7mm with a 5-inch Berkley Max General or a 5-inch Senko. What am i doing wrong? Are the rings to large?

Switch from Neko to Damiki.

More fish. Less problems.

I figure that's' just part of Neko fishing.
Try using Z-man baits.

You could drop down to the 6 mm ring. Might look a little tight but should help save your bait and nail. As for the nail try like this video. Rigging starts just before the three minute mark.

I use 7mm ring on a senko. If it becomes a big issue, I'd try a 6mm band and also super glue the nail weight in.
