What weight sinker do you most commonly use to Texas Rig? 2025
FryDog62 reply :
What's your most common weight you use when T-rigging in and around weeds for largemouth? I've usually been using 1/4 to 5/16 oz when throwing various plastics (Pit Boss, Rage Bug, etc), but am feeling the need to go heavier... Depends on a lot of factors I know, but what's your formula?

I like weightless too. Just seems like a more natural presentation.
Russ E reply :
I use the lightest possible for the conditions. it depends on the weed density and depth i am trying to reach.
if the weeds are sparse I will use no weight to 1/4 oz.
if I have to punch through a mat I will go up to 3/8 - 3/4 oz.
Bluebasser86 reply :
1/4oz
Turkey sandwich reply :
1/8-3/8oz are the most common for me, unless I need to get through really heavy vegetation. I've gone as light as 1/16 oz pretty consistently in the past and had great success.
Mike L reply :
3/16, 1/4 or 1 1/2 depending on what and where.

1/8, 3/16, & 1/4 oz. ?
tander reply :
I guess I use 3/16 the most.
SummertimeCarl reply :
I also almost always use 3/16. I honestly just don't have the patience to go too light and like to be able to "feel" my lure.
RAMBLER reply :
Air rifle pellet.

What does this mean? Do you just insert a BB into the actual soft plastic bait? I've heard of people using nails but never BB's but it seems like an interesting idea to try.
Raul reply :
Most common is 1/4 oz.

scaleface reply :
3/16 , 1/4 and 5/16th get used almost 100 per cent of the time . Occasionally I will use a 1/8th . I dont have the massive weed beds to punch through like some of you do.
Bankbeater reply :
1/8, 3/16, and 1/4 ounce if I need weight. When I fish a Senko and senko knockoffs I usually start out weightless and go from there.
Munkin reply :
3/16oz is what I use the most with creature baits.
