How to Tie a TEXAS RIG for Bass | Best Bass Rigs for Beginners

Time for the TEXAS RIG! Texas rigs are killer bass rigs. Given the right conditions (and there are many right conditions for a Texas rig) bass won't be able to lay off them. Whether you're rigging a Yamamoto Senko, Yum Dinger, Zoom Lizard or a creature bait, it's hard to go wrong with a Texas rig. To make a Texas rig, all you need is a sliding weight (such as a bullet or egg sinker), a bead, and a worm hook. Chris demonstrates how to put this rig together in this 3 minute tutorial. If you weren't using a Texas rig before, add it to your fishing arsenal and catch some monster bass with it!

Some of my favorite lures to fish with a Texas rig

Dude yes. My favorite Youtube videos are when I doubletap that 10 seconds forward right from the get-go, and find that I have to go back because the creator has already got into it. 👌👌👌

I went fishing today and I did everything right with the Texas rig but I only put the hook half way threw the middle instead of sticking the hook all the way though and I probably had 10 bass grab my lure and take off with it and spit it out because the hook was stuck on the worm and wasn’t hitting the basses mouth luckily I found this video so I don’t lose anymore fish

What a simple knot the only one I can remember going forward

[ybhbwkn]

Glass bead will also make a bit of a clacking noise to imitate a crayfish.

Nice rig. I picked up some Trout Magnets and heading out to Busch tomorrow, wish me luck. My first time fishing in Missouri in over 40 years.

Thanks for the easy to follow and to the point video. I’m going rig this up tonight and try it tomorrow morning. To tight lines

[markhowell]

Hi, So where can you find the worms with the notches? I've looked everywhere and can't find them
Thanks, Mark
Great video by the way,

[areurdytoparty]

Oops I've been rigging the yum dinger upside down the whole time..

[boomblade]

Had a BEAST on this morning but didn’t set the hook in time…

[angeel]

Hello thanks for the video, what size of hook do you recommend for bass fishing?

[MrHiker]

I tied a Texas rig used a rubber worm and didn't catch anything do you know why I didn't catch anything arn't these worms supposed to work

[kkbr]

what hook? very new to the fishing scene so i got no clue man

[A_Mel]

Hey man quick question, looks like a 1/16 weight what bead size is it ? Thanks

[lynnglidewell]

You didn't pull the bead down over the knot and the bullet weight down to meet it. Therefore I'm giving you a grade "I" for incomplete youngman!

[wakeawakening]

Do you need a bullet sinker for this? Would a split sinker work?
