A tip to the people from someone who used this rig a lot as a beginner: I was also told about the "reel in very slowly" action however through personal experience this works best with curly tails, lizards, or anything with the curly bits. When using stick worms or worms with no curly bits I recommend casting into an area with a lot of cover (weeds, rocks, fallen trees, etc.) then allowing it to sink to the bottom. If you picked the right bait and you dropped it right next a fish there's a good chance they'll strike immediately. Otherwise let it sit on the bottom for just a few seconds. (count to 3 or 5) then give it a sharp twitch, or a good little yank upwards to pop it off the bottom. Reel in the slack carefully and allow it to sink again. If you have the right bait and there are fish about where you cast then you should get a bite every other cast.

If you’re using flukes, you can work them sorta like a jerk bait. I’ve also learned how to retrieve the bait on top of the water without reeling too fast, but it works best (for me) with lizards.

Congratulations, Jack! That’s a nice bass! The Texas Rig did me right tonight, too. I threw jigs, whopper ploppers, frogs, and swim baits for 3 hours without so much as a bite. I finally paddled over to my favorite spot around 11 tonight and covered the area twice with top water. When the whopper plopper and frog failed to produce any action, I finally decided to tie one of these green pumpkin 4” Senkos I grabbed the other day by mistake. I Texas rigged it with a 3/8 bullet weight. Then I tossed it into a 4-6’ wide channel that runs between the milfoil and a rock hillside, back toward the mouth of the creek that feeds the lake. On the third cast, I got absolutely lit up by what proved to be the hardest hit of the night. I had been distracted by another bass nailing a some unknown prey right next to my kayak and I missed the hook set. I worked that spot three more times with a fresh Senko before casting about fifteen yards further down the channel beneath a small shade tree that sticks out from the rock wall. I knew that in previous years that the day time bass frequented a pocket there and had a feeling I might get lucky. On the second cast, I got hit on the drop by a 3. He had some spirit and fought like a fish twice his size. Once I had him off the hook, I had to take a minute to admire how beautiful he was. He had a deep forest green color and looked to be in excellent heath. When I released him back into the lake, he showed me he still had a little fight left by soaking me before swimming away. Overall I was very happy with that fish being my first bass since I stored my rods a week before deer season in 2020. After I got him back in the water, I worked the area near that pocket for about five more minutes missing one more strike before finally hooking into my second fish of the night. This time, I was working a new Senko along the outside edge of that same pocket just outside the milfoil. After my third set of action, a slightly longer spawned out female hit on the pause. After dragging her out of the milfoil I found that she had managed to inhale just the tip and barb on my hook. She was already in less than ideal shape and removing the hook took longer than I would have liked, so I didn’t take the time to get a weight on her. I just wanted to get her back in the water. I continued down toward the end of the channel where I got drilled on the drop again. This time, my line snapped on the hook set. I hadn’t retied after my last two fish, and it cost me. I decided to look for a big bite and set up another Texas Rig, this time weightless with a 7” Senko. It was after midnight at this point and I wanted to look for one big bite before heading back to the boat launch. I got three strikes on this set up, but missed all three hooksets. The hook I used was just a bit too small for the longer worm and it cost me. The Texas Rig is the first bass fishing method my dad taught me and it’s still how I catch 75% of my fish 16 years later.

Used a weighted Texas Rigged Black/Blue Senko Earlier and casted to the fountain in my local neighborhood pond. Casted perfectly, hitting just on the outskirts of the water and I felt a "b- b- BAM", I let him tighten my line, and set the hook. Thiught I was snagged for a second, but though, "This is déjà vu, this is a fish." Never saw a bass bigger than 3 pounds jump before. 4 Pounder jumped and it was awesome! On a medium Rod! Pulled drag and faught like h*ll. Dink catcher, but also a giant catcher. Second best.

Great video! I would put the green part on top and the white part of the bait on bottom. Fish are always darker on top.

Texas Rig is my go to for bass fishing. I usually use 7" stick baits. The little lakes around me are super weedy so I like to bury the end of my hook inside the stick bait to make it truly weedless. I've heard people claim it makes it harder to set the hook, but I haven't ever had an issue.

I always bury my hook,weed less and better through trees and stumps.

If it’s choppy this rig is great with a cone leader too. Just caught some bass with it last week. Works great with boot tailed flukes

Texas rig has changed my fishing completely

Carolina rigs got perfect action for imitating a crawdad, the feeling of having that fake crawdad scurrying around the rocks is so dope it’s like you’re a puppeteer.

Beautiful presentation 🙌🏼💪🏼

That fish is perfect flathead bait…. I highly recommend

Thanks everyone for your tips in all your comments love fishing and l never stop learning always open to try new rigs and baits ✌️

Love that rig. I throw a stick bait on there and let it sit there slowly lifting my rod up to keep slight tension so I can feel the light bite. When I do a nice hook set. One thing worth mentioning is that the bait you put in needs to remain mostly straight from the eye to the point. When you poke through initially it needs to be about the same depth as the hook point before it bends then poke through so have it sit right on the hook. This is my favorite largemouth bass setup.

I’ve been fishing for 12 years and this is still my favorite rig

You baited the hook so smooth 😂 dexterity level 100

A simple 1/16 oz bullet weight and a worm, very slowly bump it across the bottom. To bump it all you need to do is make small twitches towards you with your rod. Very effective , will get you a nice bass , especially if you are just starting off . ( This coming from a person who has only been fishing a few years.) I highly recommend this to all beginners. Also man you make great videos , I watch your shorts often, they are very well put together I am going to start checking out your channel for longer content

There is also twist lock hooks that you can twist them on and then make it into a texas rig

I'm pretty sure a sliding bullet weight is what defines the Texas rig.

As a texan a Texas rig is not commonly weightless

Still one of the absolute best ways to fish. So simple and VERY effective!

Unlocked the weightless texas rig earlier this year…..it just works. They tear that thing up fr 😭😭

Versatility is an understatement. You can work it slow or you can work it fast. You can replicate injured prey in a current or twitch it on the lake bottom. If you point the tip down while you twitch, you can replicate a topwater lure, and if you invert the rod to your side, you can make it a topwater lure with a popping sound effect.

Been fishing my whole life and till today this day I love a good ole Texas rig

My favorite setup. Also quite like drop shot especially with live bait

I am definitely not a beginner to fishing, my pb is a 18 lb king salmon, but i am a beginner to bass fishing and don’t know what setup to use, so i will try this, thanks. I am only 11 though so i have plenty of time to fish in my life, but i had no help at all catching that king

I run this setup for bass in the weeds, I also keep 18ga brad nails to add extra weight, I will slide different brads into the head of the worm, it gives it more of a jig head feel and presentation keeping it weedless

Reel slow, I was taught to jig them across them bottom to mimic a crawfish or small minnow, if its sandy bottom reel slow while its dragging the bottom to ster up settlement

Them curly tails are so underrated you can catch about anything on em and you get so many bites

“Look at that action in the tail” Tail: barely moves

Great set up dude 👏 good job on your video 📹 👏

Your actually meant to keep the tip of the hook inside the rubber, the way your doing it can still snag. Fish have a powerful bike when they strike so biting through the rubber is like us biting into a banana, that's how you rig a weed less, always bury the hook.

If there’s weeds bury the hook. If not leave it out. Idk why this is even an argument. Fishing for 45 years you should know this is based on preference. If you don’t mind breaking off every now and then leave it out. If you’re a smooth handed baby that doesn’t like tying then bury it🤣

thanks for the info on a good beginner setup i am a beginner at bass fishing and started last year this helps i will try it next time i go fishing!

Yes this is both my favorite you said it. Listen to how he said slow as you can stop reeling let the weight of the line make slack reel the slack as the line drops

Yep. I use lighter brown flukes with sparkles the same way and smash fish all day. Great video, very informative.

Been using this for years. It catches fish, period.

Thank you these are always useful Will you show us a Carolina rig too please and thank you

I use the “bump bump reel” method where you jig it up twice, let it fall, and reel

You don’t need a weight if you are pond fishing off the land. Weightless works better. Dark ponds, Texas rig a black/blue worm 30 min after sun goes down. This year off rocks I caught a 9lbs large mouth, 4lbs largemouth. Just let the Texas rig sink, pop it, let it sink again. Drives bass crazy

I agree. I texas rig 99% of the time, and it CATCHES

Thank you I always knew how to rig it but this made it way easier for me

Hook up a zoom trickworm the same weedless style also with no weight and you'll catch an unreasonable amount of fish. The worms movement when jigged resembles a dying fish and nearly forces a bite on many species

I leave the tip of the hook in the worm to make it entirely weedless.

I actually will cast let it fall.. then wait about 30 seconds pick up til about surface and then let it fall again.. reeling in the slack as it’s falling.. bass gonna hit on the fall or when it’s actually on the bottom.. I like to put a bullet weight on for crawdads n what not

Great ideas! Thank you! Happy fishing all!💯😎

Structure but is the best way to learn t rig or jig. Throw into trees or under overhanging branches. Structure bug is the best creature IMO

Will you please recommend a kayak.

The way he let the fish go in the beginning🥵

If you line up the hook after you put in the tip and turn it around rite where the hook ends is where you shuld poke thru straight bait every time

That's the rig I use most and it's caught me fish basically everytime I go out fishing. Weightless and weighted. Truly an awesome rig and I usually put a crawdad or senko on it

Very nice I will try it but to this day I prefer using double treble crankbaits. Firetiger and chrome lures, especially Berkley Flicker Shad. It has rattles, nice color, great roll with a double swivel, and comes in various sizes.

Question from a guy just getting into fishing, if you re-embed the barb how does it hook the fish? Obviously setting the lure works, but it seems like that would just embed the barb further into the bait.

In sweden that fish is called gädda

Drop and pop/walk it. Always a good time.

Slow and small is the best when fishing. No matter if it's a rapala plug Texas rig Carolina rig or drop shot. It's got to be small and slow.

Gonna try this asap. Looks great for pickerel fishing in weeds.

Correct me if I’m wrong but Texas rig refers to the way the weight is rigged so a “weightless Texas rig” is not a Texas rig just a weightless wide gap hook and plastic. You wouldn’t call a swivel then a leader a “weightless Carolina rig”.
