I thought i would NEVER use a Texas rig the same after watching this video… smh
Only hook I use is a tru-turn 4/0 brute ,!!
Rod and reel selection , a zebco 33 and a bass pro shop medium/heavy pistol grip and 10# line . Caught me a 9 and 1/2 pounder on a Texas rig with an 1/16 oz. Bullet weight .
First time I have even heard the term PEG. As for the weight, I keep those old style toothpicks in my tackle box just for keeping the weight from moving. Never had any line issue with a toothpick.
Thanks for posting, but my man, look at the camera
8 minutes of listening to his b.s. before he got to the subject of rigging. That’s why I hate these vids… people just love to get on and talk!! Dayum!!
Thanks!
What’s typically better in that clear water? Drop shot? Ned rig? Texas rig?
Would you consider a screw lock EHG hook over the other hooks you talked about. I have just started to use them; and so far, they hold the bait better than the others. Just wondering.
Whenever fishing is slow Texas rig always saves the day! Even on a drop shot in summer Texas rigged senko or craw slays it
Lots of good info here. Probably the most detailed texas rig video I've seen
Eastern Carolina taught me a different way of fishing. 10 – 12 inch worms can still get you 2 pound plus. Never afraid to use huge worms.
We were taught the peg as a standard way back.
I had to do that in WNC at Fontana and Santeetlah.
Small weights. Clear water.
I had an 8 foot flipping rod when all that got. Never slayed them with that technique.
Never paid attention to gear ratio except spinnerbaits and crank baits. Faster ratios for those.
Never peg with a toothpick. I use a piece of rubber band tied in a not at the top of the weight. No line damage. I agree with your hook selection. Trusted True Turn for years.
There were some kuykendall’s in my school. Probably relatives.
Does anyone ever still use the lead bullet weights? I’ve always used a 3/16 and still catch many. Tungsten is so expensive and it’s not like I can’t afford them, but is everyone satisfied that it’s better than lead? The only reason I’d think to change would be a faster sink rate in deeper water.
Great advice but I don't agree with everything. I run a 8.2.1 slxdc , on 25lb braid . And if I'm running a weighted texas rig it's always pegged never an issue . And on my 6.2.1 abu reel I run a weightless texas rig and I can catch em on both lol but that's me I mainly fish the texas rig all year so maybe I'm used to it. Great vid
Power worms and power baits in general are great. Perfect on a Texas rig. Enjoyed the video.
Florida fishing rocks! Only problem here is soupy algae in our ponds. I love the texas rig but fishing the bottom can accumulate lots of green. And im not talking about cash!
Great video
CLICK BAIT!
Nice combo.. And line selection..👍🏻 6th Sense products are really good.
Are all the the baits you talked about for bass only?,,if not what do u use for trout?
This is great advice thanks im new to fishing i only use swimbaits got obsessed with bluegills and everyone was laughing like my family was like "those little fish again" but now i get it its because bluegill are very boring to some people so i switched swimbaits this summer and i caugh a nice little pike, small mouth crappie , and catfish on a worm because they dont go for soft plastics but i will try this next time i go bass fishing at my local pond
I love , love finesse fishing fir bass, needless to say, but I super enjoy texas rig bass fishing. For your average size worms, I go with offset shank worm hook because I like the smaller profile and the way it is in line with the worm. EWG for craws. My go-to worms are ribbon tail worms. I love that it gives extra action to whatever I'm doing. Texas rig weightless in the spring for me. Love all the ideas and tips on here and comment section. God bless everyone!
If you can fish a Texas Rig weightless and cast the bait where you want it, is that the preferred method given the theory of less weight is better?
I restrict my EWG hooks to bulkier plastics that require a larger gap.
I've Ben bass fishing for 50 years there is one thing for sure takle has improved by an unbelievable amount technology.
Solid info! To the point. Thankd
Welcome to Fl! For me late 80s and 90s always went with Tru Turn 2/0 hooks and continued to be my choice in 2023. 1/8oz I agree…recently caught several in area with current and NO weight except for hook and soft plastic. I think as light as possible for any area is best.
Obviously a lot of opinions out there. Fish a million hours and have an open mind is my approach. There’s so many variables. I fish with guys using the same lure as me and smoke them and vice versa.
I had the privilege of fishing the lower Potomac for a few years in the 90s. I usually fished from the bank and had a couple of fantastic locations. One was in a cove on the Maryland side just before the Wilson bridge. I had another spot that was even more amazing but it was a hike to get to. It was a little south of the Woodrow Wilson and up a little tributary. It was incredible in the heat of the summer. I’ve also fished the upper Potomac around Brunswick and Sandy Hook. Also not as far north, around Dickerson and the Monocacy Aquaduct. They produced a lot of bass too, but they were generally about half the size. It’s been over 25 years since I’ve fished the Potomac but if I get the opportunity I would love to fish it again.
Make a BETTER PRESENTATION use a weighted swimbait hook (VMC Drop Dead Hook)
