How To Rig?

Featured Replies

Today I got a pack of Z-Man, large floating worms. They're the ones with the rage tail type end, how would you rig that and get the best success with it? I'm asking as far as hook, etc.

 

Also, I got one of these chameleon Yo Zuri jerk baits that floats....is walking the dog the best option for lures like this? It's pretty sweet, I must admit. 

A good 4/0 hook set up for texas rig worm . Those might even be a deadly carolina rig setup. I tend to be more aggressive with a floating jerkbait. I have gotten some nice reaction bites near or over brush piles .

So you just throw it towards structure? I'm a bank fisher, I don't have a boat. I've just been throwing out towards the depth a little and bringing it back it like I would a frog. 

I got those in my box as well.  Gonna use them on the Freedom Zodiac Jigheads that came in the box with them and shaky head as well.

They sent me a shovel head jig, it's pretty nice. I just need to figure out the best way here.

So t-rigging is the best option here? 

I like fishing those Z-Man worms on a shaky head or behind a Carolina rig, especially love em on a shaky head. However, don't underestimate the power of a C-rig from the bank and/or in shallow water. They can be deadly around structure. Just use a lighter weight on it, say a 3/8, instead of a 3/4 or 1 ounce and be sure to not use a real long leader in the shallows as those Z-Man worms will float.
