Rig me
Softly
These four rigging methodswill get any style of so-plastic lure ready for action.
WACKYRIG (A) This killer setup for bass involves hooking slim so-plastic bait through the middle. Both ends are le free to wiggle, and in most cases no weight is added. It’sespeciallyeffective with Senkos.
TUBE RIG (B) There are several good ways to rig tubes such as the Gitzit. Most oen I go with a small internal jighead. For a ⁄-inch ( cm) tube, use a /
⁄-ounce (. g), insider-style jighead. Insert the hook in the tube’s head and rotate it so it passes down inside the body without exiting. Continue by forcing the head of the jig into the tube, leaving only the hook eye exposed. Then work the hook point out and through the tube at the rear so the tube lies straight.
CAROLINA RIG(C) To make this commonrig forboom dredging, Texas-rig a worm or lizard but leave the hook eye exposed. Tie inches (6 cm) of clear leader between the hook and a small barrel swivel. On your main line, thread a brass Carolina weight (or lead sinker), followed by a small red glass bead, and tie your main
line to the other side of the swivel. The weight will click against the glass bead as you fish to help aract bass.
TEXAS RIG (D) Most oen used with plastic worms and lizards, this rig is adaptable to other baits, like jerkbaits. Put a conical worm weight on the line first and then aach the hook. Thread the hook point about ⁄ inch (. cm) into the worm’s head and then through the worm’s underside. Slide the worm up the hook shank so it just covers thehook eye. Rotate the hook until it faces upward toward the worm’s body. Grab the worm right behind the hook bend, push its body slightly forward, and then bring it back down on the hook point until
the point is almost but not quite all the way through the plastic. The bait should now lie straight. I use a / Gamakatsu offset-shank worm hook for a typical 6- or -inch ( to cm) worm, but any similar style is fine.
