@TubeDude, you are very right. It is a matter of personal preference as well as what the fish like. I actually used a drop shot rig when I was saltwater Surf fishing in Oregon on vacation once. It was a good rig to use. Maybe I'll try using it for bass in the snake river next time I go.
I was actually just out at Walters Ferry a few minutes ago. I was using a Carolina rig with a crawdad jig. I got snagged, and I lost the jig. Then, I tried out a Texas Rig. Same thing happened.
Both rigs didn't get that many bites.
When I went to re-rig my line, I realized that was out of crawfish jigs. All I had left were bass worms lures.
So, I decided to Wacky rig it without a weight, and see what would happen. I used to do this when I fished for largemouth bass in North Idaho.
I hooked three fish, and I was able to bring two in.
So, let's also not forget the wacky rig!
