You'll NEVER Rig a Texas Rig the Same After Watching This!

You'll never rig a texas rig the same after watching this! Texas rig bass fishing is probably one of the easiest and most used ways to catch bass but learning how to rig a texas rig properly will ensure you can catch more fish! I will go over how to fish a texas rig in a future video as this one is going to be the basis on how to rig a texas rig so you have a good foundation for the future video coming up!

Texas rig is my go to for tough day’s, never lets me down. Great advice ,all is on point!

[@NettingwithNick]

Lots of good info here. Probably the most detailed texas rig video I've seen

[@gavinbutler4054]

On texas rigs up to 1/2oz, I put a bobber stop in front of my knot to protect it.

[@nathansmith5331]

I have used Texas rigged since I was 12 and I’m 40 now. I like worm hooks a ton and EWG. I don’t feel like like one is better than the other. My best advice to newer Texas rig guys is throw it often and try to keep your weight as light as possible. I rarely ever go about 1/4 ounce bow except for deep weeds in the summer I’ll use 3/8-1/2 ounce.

[@nathanquincefishing7122]

I agree with that!

[@philipredic866]

i use an 1/8 ounce

[@the45er]

I'm confused as to how I could ever catch bass 30-40 years ago when a casting reel retrieved that lure at some unknown speed? I didn't have a clue what "gear ratio" was and still bass actually bit my lures on occasion.

[@TimmyTheKitty]

I do good with my Zebco 33 with a Texas rig. Just let it drop, reel in about a foot, let it sit about 5-10 seconds, repeat. 🤷🏻‍♂️ works for me as my go to play.

[@CACoons07]

I agree. All these specifics that are so important, and I do just fine ignoring all of them with my $20 spinning reel and basic monofilament line.

There are more options available today and more types of bass, too. Different breeds of bass made babies that weren’t around 40 years ago, too.

[@PapawHasThis1]

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.

[@PapawHasThis1]

I don’t know what it looks like around the bridge since they replaced it but I’m sure there’s hundreds of good locations within just a mile or so on either the upper side or the lower side of the bridge.

[@nathanquincefishing7122]

It’s a great fishery!

[@Reelswimshady]

Texas rigged caffeine shad no peg 3/16 oz to 1/4 oz is an absolute killer the slip weight controls the dart of the fluke/trick worm action of the caffeine shad! The dart draws them to it and they’ll either hit on the fall of the dart or after it sits on the bottom for 3-4 seconds! Great video! New sub!

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!

I've only targeted bass for about a decade (it was all bluegill and catfish until I caught my PB 4' channel cat), and almost all of my success has been with soft plastic swim baits and spinners. I haven't had the patience to really finesse fish, but last year, I dedicated so much time to throwing a Texas rig, and I got squat lol I've caught huge steelhead trout with a 2" curly tailed grub on a Ned Rig, so I'm gonna try smaller worms this year - something in the middle, like a 4" curly tail - and definitely gonna go Ned Rig unless throwing right into the pads.

[@nathanquincefishing7122]

Keep trying it catches them!

[@kevinstoneburner8775]

Try it without the weight as well

[@Dan-yh4uz]

I throw my Texas rigged senkos almost exclusively weightless and catch plenty of fish. But I would switch up finesse presentations because it could be that your water is heavily pressured by people throwing stick baits.

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

[@stevepompei3694]

All I use are 1-0 offset shank worm hooks like the first one you showed, my nephew only uses the ewg, wide whatever you call them in a 2 or 3-0 size. I always catch more fish when we fish together. I always figured those clumsy wide hooks were too obvious visually. Its not that i miss hookups, they just dont go after his for some reason. Both Fishing zoom trick worms no weights. Wondering if anyone has thoughts on visibility since the majority seem to prefer them bigger wide hooks, I fish more from years of doing, he being younger tends to go by books and videos etc, but always asks for a hook after hes just not catching like me. We both fiah same technique, toos, let sink, tug and reel, wait a few seconds, repeat, roland martin style. Fish in our lake range from 1.5 to 8 pounds, majority are 2 to 3 lbs.

[@johnwazenski4397]

I fish Lake George NY a few times a year in a kayak. I’ve caught my biggest bass there but not a lot of catches. I like going into the north west bay thought the swamp looks like bass heaven but never had much luck nor in the bay itself. Do you have any tips or locations you have fished. I was told to head up to mossy point and will try it this week. I like your videos very informative. John

[@nathanquincefishing7122]

Thanks! I’ve never been to that lake so I won’t be much help on spots!

[@bruceraiken2806]

Nice video, Nathan! I 'm a bit shy with worm hooks as well. I don't seem to miss many fish with the EWG, even in considerable grass areas, so why fix what's not broken? When I fish a 4" thin worm like a power worm, sometimes I'll go with a #1 or 1/0 worm hook, but the worm's not straight after you skin hook it cause it doesn't lay parallel to the worm as does an EWG, and I'm often light lining & weighting such small baits, so I'd prefer skin hooking to burying the hook point, requiring greater force on 8/10# line to get an adequate hookset,. When I saw your straight tail (finesse) worm rigged with the EWG, kind of told me you're not a big fan....

[@nathanquincefishing7122]

I use both! Just don’t use many round bend hooks

[@daltonwade7908]

With the peg it keeps the weight right on the head giving the bass more leverage to throw the hook.

I've never used those hooks. I like to buy a pack I can throw a robot worm or a fat creature bait. Ewg or Flippin hooks work best for me. And that depends on cover snfmd how the fish are biting g.

[@heavymetalmusichead4969]

I'm not a huge fan of the straight shank hooks myself (round bend or otherwise) but many excellent anglers have great success with them. Brian Latimer comes to mind. He seems to use them exclusively. I prefer EWG hooks for Texas rigging. Weight size for me is usually determined more by water type than by cover. If it's a fast current river I'm fishing, I can't use light weights because the current won't allow the worm to sink. On a pond or slow moving river, I'll use a lighter weight, just because I don't need the heavy weight any more, and you get a slower action that the fish seem to prefer more.

[@robertbrandywine]

I'm always put off by how visible the EWG hook is compared to a round bend hook. Do you think some bass see the hook and avoid the worm?

I’m 68 and started bass fishing when I was 15 and have caught hundreds of bass on a straight shank offset hooks, usually #3-#4 hooks, though I have several other top named brands wide gap hooks and had success on them too, though never afraid to tie a straight shank for any soft bait, especially for my worms and craws, unless it’s required to use another style due to the baits size. There are so many things these younger fisherman have learned from and the same thing we heard them from in the early ‘70’s and that’s pure advertisement! If you are a pretty good fisherman, I think more of it is skill, not so much brands and styles!

[@davidsedlacek3855]

Do you think that you loose feel or action from floro to copolymer. Do you get less bites?. I switched from floro to gamma copolymer last year and feel I did better at years end, with less cost, and better results. I'm asking for legit reasoning. I use mostly 12lb ...on my worm set up which I fish all year in Pa mostly Erie. Thanks for your video and Input.

[@kevinbeaudean704]

I am not Nathan but my 2 cents are, co-poly will give you a slower fall rate and a little better action on your worm. Co-poly is thicker but more limber than floro. Co-poloy is way cheaper. Floro sinks, is more sensitive, thinner, less stretch (better hook sets), less visible. That's why pros use it. Co-poly is better than mono in my opinion .

Thanks Nathan. I have stayed away from EWG hooks for worms because it just seems I get more bites with worm hooks. I think it's a visual thing or just in my head.
