This is a long comment . Please bear with me. This comment is for older disabled fisherman like me. I've been bass fishing for 40 years. When people started talking about using a wide gap hook, I tried several types and used them exclusively for about 18 months and missed a lot of hookups. Thought maybe I was doing something wrong. But, when I went back to my original favorite hook, a TruTurn hook 5/0, my hook sets went back to normal and I caught many more bass. The 5/0 TruTurn hook seems to be about equal to a 4/0 wide gap hook. The TruTurn has a slimmer shank. You might ask why I'm using such an old-fashioned hook. I'm 70 years old and have to fish sitting down in very good seat with a back support. Because of that, I cannot set a hook like a person standing on the shore or a boat deck. The TruTurn hook pretty much matches the shape shown in this video. I've never been sure that the twist in the shank helps to get the hook point out of the worm but it may. It does make it slightly more difficult to get a straight worm. I use this hook mainly for it's slim shank. It allows the hook to pass through the worm with less effort. I've come very close to catching my first 10 pound bass and the hook held up extremely well. I don't think the hook has a problem with strength unless maybe you're catching 20 lb bass. I also use a soft worm. My favorite worm, fishing for large bass, is a 10" Culprit shad colored worm. Being both black and silver it seems to work well in deeply stained water as well as in clear water. On the pond I fish, I can catch lots of small bass using a 7 1/2" worm. Using a larger worm keeps me from damaging the smaller bass and thereby allowing them to grow. They usually grab the tail and either let go or move the worm on the hook and I get to leave them in the water. For those of you who remember when the Culprit came out, it was about 40 years ago. This old lady fishes with a hook and worm that were available 40 years ago and I haven't seen a Texas Rig setup that works better overall. The new harder worms probably stand up better but, for those of us who can't do a normal hook set, they are problematic. A final note, this is for everybody, you might want to try some of the older lures and see if they don't work as well or better than many of the newer lures. I use both and the mix works best for me. 🎣🐋😉👩🦳

As a beginner angler, I’ve been doing lots of research and I can’t help but notice how contradictory all the advice is. I just read an article about the Texas rig and it said the opposite of this video; that offset hooks have a better hook up rate than straight shank. So I went out and bought a bunch of offset hooks 😅 I fully understand that Chuck clarified he isn’t saying his way is the only/best way, but what he said makes perfect sense and I have been missing a lot of hook sets. Oh well, live and learn! This was a very informative vid and I can’t wait to get back out there and practice! Thanks for sharing! 🎣

First rig is A standard Pegged Texas rig on a EWG hook. The second one is a flipping/punching rig designed for fishing thick grass mats, punching through water lilies and fishing heavy cover. Not exactly the same thing. Technically, "Texas rigging" is just the way you fix the worm on the hook, but these two rigs are two different things entirely. For those guys who dislike the EWG hook on a regular Texas rig, you should be using a regular round bend offset worm hook anyway. There's no need for an EWG unless you're using a large, thick or wide lure like a creature bait, not your average skinny worm like a trick worm or power worm.

@markkmiecik9797

Yeah, I prefer a straight shank hook also. The offset hook moves the point parallel to the worm for a short distance instead of out of the worm, delaying penetration of the point into the fish and it does more damage to the worm with each hookset, making it necessary to use a fresh worm more often. Also, we don't have a whole lotta 10-pounders here in Illinois, so I'm normally using a 1/0 hook with a 6" worm on 8-lb test and 1/8 or 3/16 ounce sinker. The only time I'll upsize from that is on water that I know produces 4-pounders and up frequently, and then it's usually just a bigger worm. I'll normally take 3 to 6 fish before I need to use a new worm. I'm old school, so I peg the sinker with a toothpick, but only when I'm in the thick stuff.

The angle of the hook tip lying just below the skin of the plastic is so well-placed to come jumping out to snag the mouth of a bass. I'll give it a try now on a T-rigged worm! Brad

I'm not a bass fisherman but tried Texas rigging a worm for walleye recently. I noticed that the senko type worms I bought had a small groove in the side which I assume is a spot to allow the hook to stay flat to the worm body and unexposed to snags but also ready for hook sets. I think it prevents the problem you described of having the worm body slide down from the top of the offset when setting the hook

On the 1st rig with the EWG hook, "push that point back in there" is misleading, you just barely place the hook point under the skin of the bait, that way when the fish hits the hook point becomes exposed and you set the hook. It's all about fine tuning so the hook point can be exposed more and easier, however, test it, tap the worm with your finger and try to feel the hook point, if you feel it too easy, bury it some more, not easy then redo lighter. This is crucial as you don't want the hook point to become too easily exposed when your bouncing it on the bottom banging rocks, weeds, and wood. Depending on the density and slickness of the type of plastic, if the worm doesn't move off the hook point easy, work it up and down on the hook slightly and create a larger hole (where the hook point went through) which allows the worm to come off AND move away from the hook point easier. This simple trick (for lack of a better word) increased my hook-up percentage/ratio drastically! More space between the hook point and the worm = better chance of hook set = maximum hook-up percentage!

Great tips, think I'll try this. You definitely pegged me when you said if you are into Bass fishing then you need to learn how to worm fish, and to be honest I struggle with it. I'm trying but never thought about the hook angle. If you have any other ideas on how to help me distinguish between a bite and the grass/bottom I would like to hear them! What should I do? Only take my worm/jig rod out for one day and just get the feel of it? It's so frustrating! Help!! Lol and thank you!

I PULL THE HOOK EYE DOWN INTO THE SOFT PASTIC, THEN PUH A TOOTH PICK THROUGH THE PLASTIC AND THE HOOK EYE.. THIS KEEPS THE WORM FROM SLIDING DOWN THE HOOK AND CASUING ME TO LOOSE FISH BECAUSE OF BAD HOOK SETS.. THE WOOD WIL HOLD BAIT SCENT ND IT WIL ALSO HAVE A SMALL IMPACT ON LURE FALL RATE... AND SAVES ME HAVING TO BY SPECIALTY HOOKS..

My largest question is with that setup is how sturdy does that worm remain? How many casts/bites will that work sustain with how the corkscrew weight sits up top shredding the plastic and the way the hook is in sideways how it will create a tear back to the middle of the worm at the entry point. I feel like this setup is for literally non cast drops. If you full cast this setup does the worm hold up to tears and shredding? Serious concern haha

I generally use a lot of 15lb, and sometimes 12lb if I’m in open water here in C. Florida

I feel like mono has too much stretch to use with a Texas Rig. I prefer fluorocarbon or a copolymer, both possibly as a leader on braid if I’m in heavy cover.

Tim Augustine I just prefer mono. It’s gives the worm a more fluid action

Great video! So everywhere seems to be out of stock on 3/16oz bullet screw-in weights. The two closest sizes I'm seeing for sale are 1/8oz and 3/8oz (I don't see any 1/4oz). Would either of those weights work? Thanks!

+Maw Hrin Thanks! Not really. I use mono, fluoro, and braid. Just depends on the types of cover you’re fishing.
