When most people think of bass fishing the last thing that comes to mind are bass fishing rigs. Other types of artificial lures pop up in my head when it comes to top water fishing. You should think about bass fishing righs along with these other things.
My favorite bass fishing rigs are my go-to Curados. I get better performance out of them with all the weights out and the drag tightened until a slight dip of the rod tip allows the lure to pull a little line. If I loosen the drag enough that the line automatically feeds out slowly, I will get a birdnest every once in a while and it works the same with lures from 1/8 - 1/2 oz.
Here you will see some of the best bass fishing rigs on the market.
Using the gang ring, the first rig on the line to hook a worm and other live bait is the best method of fishing for bass.
A way for spin fisherman to fish with an artificial fly in a very effective manner is the second rig known as the casting bubble rig.
The Carolina rig is one of the best kinds of bass fishing rigs in which the weight is put high up the line a distance from the bait. Using the Carolina rig is going to successful even if you use it with other types of lures. This is probably the most common type of rig used today because it will help keep your lure from touching bottom.
The Texas Rig was the first plastic bait rig used by anglers when bass fishing really got started more than 25 years ago. It has produced more bass catches than any other artificial bait and it's a simple right to set up. The Texas Rig is a staple set up for fishing both smallmouth and largemouth bass with artificial bait. Have you ever tried a Texas rig? You get a plastic bait that is soft, put a small weight above it, put a hook inside the worm's head and then put it into the bait. This rig makes for less weeding and for better bass catches. The bullet weight allows the line to slide around freely on the line.
The Texas Rig and the Carolina Rig are fished in much the same way. Although it is no less effective when used in the right conditions the Texas Rig is more simple than the Carolina Rig. A plastic worm tied between 12 and 24 inches down the line from the weight is the fancy way of saying a Carolina Rig. The Carolina rig is almost as simple as the Texas Rig.
Which of these rigs is best for your conditions? Well the honest answer is all of them and none of them probably. Any good fisherman can tell you that spots can change, and you must change your bait in response.
There is a fine line when a hobby becomes obsession. If you are spending more annually on bass fishing rigs than Christmas and birthday presents for your family and friends, you may want to contemplate whether or not you are addicted to fishing.
There you have all you need to get started with some of the most common and proven bass fishing rigs. I hope You will like these bass fishing tips! Find out which one is the best for you by trying them yourself.
