Bass Fishing - The Carolina Rig

Most of my years of fishing for bass, I spent the Texas Rig. I did not understand the need to Carolina Rig. Until recently, ...

fishing situations and new circumstances that I met gave me the value of this approach.

Right off the bat, I can tell you that a value of the Carolina Rig is more action from the bait. Since the bait is not quickly fall down, it tends more lively.

It 's great for situations where the bass is notTaking other baits because of weeds and visibility. Pull one of these rigs on a bed of grass can be very useful.

It can be fished in deep water, but it seems that many people use 8 'of water or less off the islands, humps, coves adjacent to deep water.

The difference between the Texas Rig and the Carolina Rig is where the sinker is. In a plant in Texas, the ballast is a sinker that rides freely slide on the line with nothing between the rod and bait. In aCarolina Rig, a swivel or something else for a leader between the weight and bait it.

Both are used with plastic baits. The hook is usually embedded in the plastic body, making it virtually weedless. This is what prompted me to plastics, particularly worms love.

The typical configuration is the line then tie a sinker to a swivel slide. weight of zinc, lead can vary, usually a light weight (3 / 8 to 1 / 2 ounce) leading to a shorter and heavier sinkers (1 / 2ounces or more) for more leaders.

Next, tie your leader to the other end of the swivel. If you are new to this you might want to start with a shorter leader until you get used to casting. Usually anglers use a leader of 1 1 / 2 'to 3'. If you are fishing deeper, you'll probably want to go longer, maybe 6 or 7.

Now tie the leader to the hook. A size 2 or 3 worm hook is best, especially one with a twist in it to help in the hookset. Once a trade union affiliatedup, run the tip of the hook until the end of the chief of plastic and push it to about a quarter of an inch. Now run off-peak plastic bait the hook and push the bait the hook to the eye. Now you can bury the tip of the hook in the bait near the abdomen or egg sack.

Some people push and rotate the tip of the hook close to the body (back). This allows for better hook, but the result is more tears. I want to push before it breaks from the backwhere I can feel it pop through easily. If you do this, set the hook hard to penetrate the plastic.

Presentation may vary. Let the lunker say what they want. Try swimming, pumping, dance, movement up and down, back and forth sideways, or drag it slowly through the weeds from the 10:00 position and slowly pull the 12 o'clock position, then dropped it while reeling in the game . A very slow and steady recovery can besometimes fatal.

Sometimes you feel a bump or a blow, but more often a shot, or something like that can just feel different (heavy, soft), or you can feel nothing when you should. Watch the game. Stay in touch with the bait. If the game is the rule for any reason, or feel the weight dragging on something if you do not move the link, set the hook. Set the hook, set the hook, set the hook. It's free.

What is the plastics are better? Probably all at differenttimes. A short plastic, such as French fries would be a good starting point. I recommend lively baits that float and have a smell of garlic. You should do well with worms, lizards, crayfish or anything else you trust a.

Many people love the Carolina Rig in the wind. Probably because it is easier to close reach and gives further action to the bait. They are also very heat of the day in bed.

Have fun with them.
