Since it is winter I've been spending time thinking of new ways to catch more bass. We all know the Texas rigged worm works well. I was wondering why I don't see any double rigged Texas rigged worms. What I mean is - take your regular Texas rigged worm and eight or twelve inches above that have another Texas rigged worm on. Or, have the worm on first followed by a creature bait so it will look as if the creature is chasing the worm. There are more lures on the Alabama rig and it works. So I'm thinking two Texas rigged worms on my line would be better than one and it would work too.

Has this been tried before? Not worth the effort, bad idea? If so why?

I haven't seen that exact set up but in an issue of bassmaster I remember seeing a jig that had a drop shot style worm further up the line. The article mentioned it almost like a search bait for suspending fish and the idea was to see if they wanted a bait on the bottom or if they wanted something a little higher. They also mentioned using different colors on the two baits to see which the fish preferred. Definitely an interesting concept and I don't see why you couldn't replace that jig with a texas rigged worm.

Doesn't have to be a fluke, been using a drop fly rig for tarpon and snook for years, same concept as a double fluke rig, drop fly works for bass too.
