To me this is the ultimate rig for rocks. And bites

Yes indeed. I fished hard all week and worm was my number one producer by a landslide 

 

then again it’s been that way as long as I can recall

I use Texas rigged worms every time I fish. I may start with something else but the worm always finds it way on to the hook.

Only when I want to catch fish

What type of worms are you talking about? If we’re talking about ribbon tails air straight tails, I use those a lot

Are people not throwing T-Rig worms anymore? What??

My #1 rig for almost 40yrs. I wouldn't even consider going bass fishing without some bullet weights, worm hooks, and plastic worms.

Still lots of guys throwing Texas rigs, it just isn't an internet darling bait, so you don't hear about it as much.

Pretty sure if you did a survey asking if you could only have one bait for bass fishing, specifically largemouth, it would be the Texas rigged worm. It’s never going away. 

I use them but I have other choices.

Senkos and trick worms both texas rigged and/or Wacky are must haves for me. Never leave home without them. 

it is what I use every time I fish...........it will be what I use when I make my last cast..........not any time soon though.........

I throw TR and wacky. 

I can't imagine a bass fisherman NOT using a Texas Rig

Weightless Texas rigged worms are what landed me my first bass. Went from never catching a bass to catching 34 in a weekend.

 

Only change I'm making from the 2/0 ewg and Zoom tricks is adding 4/0 and 5/0 with some 10-1/2" and 12" worms.

 

I hear ya gotta have big bait to catch big bass, so imma give it a go.

I try them every time I fish, but always catch my best fish on something else, but I will keep trying.

I use the Oklahoma Rig, same as a Texas Rig only better.

I would give up my boat before I would give up the Texas Rig.

Hey, I hear you're giving up you boat...

Texas Rig...yeah buddy ?

Most of the time.

 

I used it most of this morning.......with success. 

Yuuup all day....no need for tokyo mex etc etc rigs old reliable  is reliable 99% of time if it dont work time for topwater or spinnerbait anyhow IMO

I only use the traditional Texas Rig with a sliding bullet weight. Otherwise it’s weightless or at the business end of a C-Rig. If I dont want the worm to move independently of the weight, I use some form of jig head. 

I used to but now I find the jika rig to be superior coming through cover and more realistic looking for worms in virtually every situation where I fish.
