I've researched tournament results for the last 25 years and not just the Pros but everything I could find on the web. I also researched results for double digit bass over that same time frame.

From that data

7 out of 10 Texas Rig anglers say a Jig-N- Trailer is their #2 weapon if choice.

60% of tournaments were won on Texas Rigs

50% of double digit bass were caught on Texas Rigs

 

Hard bait #5 shadrap, soft plastic zoom big critter craw Tex rig watermelon red 

#7 Rapala Rippin Rap 

berkely powerbait pogy swimtail shad

6"-8" plastic worms in any color as long as it's purple. I got where I would only buy purple at one point.

My favorite topwater lately has become the Spook, Jr. But at times it's been a frog, Chug Bug or a black buzzbait.

I'd like to change mine to the zman chatterbait in white.
