What Do You Do??

[lunker-lander]

Hey guys, just thought of a fun quick thing to do. Post a picture of your favorite T-Rig, C-Rig, or Dropshot method. In the picture put the hook you use,the worm or craw, and how you rig it. Try to show it when it is rigged or else just show the things needed to rig it, then put the directions for rigging it. If you can't post a picture, just say what you use and tell how to rig it. Thought this would be a fun way to learn new rigs and the different color types of worms and craws the BassFishin' Forum World uses.

Clenskh, you are going to fit right in around here.

LL, that's not a bad idea-I know Flyrod has a T-rig modification he does pretty good with. I'll let him share it if he so chooses.

You know honestly, I never do bad enough to have to turn to something different.. I just catch fish all day and bask in my greatness.

Well, unaccustomed as I am to public speaking...But, OK, here it is.

When phishing a T-rigged worm...not toad, maybe lizard, not Senko, maybe grub...I peg a GLASS faceted bead between the hook and the (usually) tungsten weight. The weight is allowed to slide freely so that it occasionally clicks or kinda grinds against the bead (think GLASS and FACETS!).
I peg with rubber Peg-Its (only) and trim the peg flush at the REAR of the bead and very nearly so at the front so as to allow the weight to contact the bead.
Since I love to toss a 4" ringworm with a 1/16th tungsten, the tiny bit (bead) of extra weight aids casting AND the slightly larger-than-that-of-the-weight diameter bead helps protect the head of the worm.
Try to rig so that the head of the worm covers the knot and then assure that the bead is so tightly pegged that it will be unlike to push the worm back when it contacts an obstacle or from the force of a cast. NEVER use anything but rubber 'cause that tight a pegging with a toothpick will damage the line, especially a soft mono or fluoro.
Be certain to liberally "slobber" on the line any and each time you slide the pegged bead, like when you wanna move it into or out of position to snug it against the worm or retie/reworm. If you don't moisten the line, you court disaster.

That's about it.

Seeing I entertained the notion of the subject, I see it fit I am subject to a reply...so here goes...

Personally, I like to rig a weightless, wacky-rigged pearl w/ silver fleck 5'' Senko on a 3/0 Gamakatsu Offset Shank Wormhook.

There is..

I like to take a Norman crankbait rig a colorado balde on the back of it with some wire. Hook a few senko's on the hooks and marinate it in smelly jelly for 3 days. It's a surfire technique!

[wargoth]

I wanna see pictures of that CLENSKH

[CLENSKH]

Negative Ghost Rider... Its a secret.

[wargoth]

OK, I am guessing you use the 00 gauge niobium wire for attaching that spinner blade?

[bassfisher02]

Forgive me for the lack of noticing sarcasm, but if i'm not mistaken thats exactly what Cletus Lolligagle Eriwattle N Sarah Kookie Heliot was [were?] doing... I dont think his top secret concuction of softplasics and crankbaits are real... and if your reply, Warlygoth, was as well sarcasm, well than disregaurd this post in its entirety.

[wargoth]

Yes, we do need a sarcasm emote (smilie) for forum boards don't we?

[reel cool 2]

What size sail boat was that anyways?

[Kawabuggy]

All this is pointless without pictures!

I say all new posts must have at least one picture in them. I can't read for Schzzznitt.. But I can ogle pictures all day!

I can almost hear something in my brain "click" when looking at a picture.. Reading? Man that just makes my eyes hurt, and my head spin..
