Top 3 Go To Rigs 2025


fishing user avatarPaBass74 reply : 

Curious to hear what everyone's top 3 go to are.


fishing user avatarCatch and Grease reply : 

Square bills & Texas rig all year long

The third spot changes as the seasons change... At the moment hollow body frogs are producing well for me!


fishing user avatarMccallister25 reply : 

It seems that I only have one bait that Im using all year long, every single time I fish and thats my black/blue jig.

The others would depend on the time of year and what's produced well for me at that particular time.


fishing user avatarTNBassin' reply : 

For me it's lipless crank, tx rigged plastic, and a swim jig.


fishing user avatarkudagra reply : 

Do yall have a go to color for your TX rig...mine was always a black power worm, since I've moved to north carolina, my black worm hasn't been so good to me.

fishing user avatarMaster Bait'r reply : 

This year it's been mostly thus: 

 

 

 

T-rigged plastics (Roboworms, Slug-Go SS, Flash J's, etc)

 

Frogs (Lunk3rhunt, KLT, Spro, etc) 

 

Snagless Sally (in a few different colors, mostly 1/2oz.) 

 

 

 

Been killing it too.  I use other stuff fairly often but these have been producing almost effortlessly so far and so I have been using them a lot.  I fish a lot of heavily weeded areas so weedlessness is pretty important to me.  


fishing user avatarNathanW reply : 

For smallmouth...

 

Drop Shot, Tube, Crankbait

 

Largemouth...

 

Drop Shot, T-rig beaver on straight shank hook, swimjig (swing impact or swim-n-shiner trailer)


fishing user avatartholmes reply : 

T-rig

Colors and styles vary as needed.

On the bench - spinnerbait, topwater, soft-bodied swimbait, blade bait, etc.

fishing user avatarFishes in trees reply : 

My top 3 constantly changes, but most recently my 3 most used rigs are the jika rig, bubba dropshot rig and I've caught several keepers recently on a Strike King Caffiene Shad, tx rigged with a 3 gram nail weight inserted in the body behind the hook, so that it drops relatively flat.

Snagless Sally! There's one I haven't seen in a while. The black w/gold blade is a smallmouth killer! I'll have to dig  through the catacombs and see if I still have a few hanging around.

 

Thanks for the reminder!
