[QUOTE="Captain Ahab, post: 1173, member: 10"] I rig the worm depending on conditions and structure. If I am fishing in shallow areas with a weightless worm, I almost always T-rig with the appropriate size hook. By appropriate size, I feel that the weight and size of the hook can have a great effect on the action of the worm. I will go with a 1/0 offset hook on thinner worms, a 2/0 offset on "senko" type worm. For larger creature baits I go up to a 4/0 offset wide gap. I also use different gauge hooks depending on the bait, if the bait sinks rather quickly I will use a thin wire hook - if the bait has some buoyancy and I want it to sink, I use a heavy hook. I will also use an octopus style hook for nose hooking or wacky rigging the worms. I also fish the soft plastics on a shaky or football head in deeper structure or on a rocky bottom. You can get a great slow retrieve going with those heads! [/QUOTE]
