The Texas Rig is a bass anglers bread and butter. They will use this technique more often than probably anything else in their tackle box. But even experienced anglers have trouble perfectly matching their hook size to their plastic. Even more critical, the precise bullet weight to match their conditions. Therefore, we built this tool to make those decisions for you.
As we built this tool we realized there are so many factors we could potentially include for this tool. We decided to keep those typical input choices for fishing tools, plus a few unique ones like bottom contact preferences, that way we can include users who are Texas Rigging for odd applications like fishing a weedless T-rig style swimbait, or any other similar presentations. The primary limitation is soft plastic choice. there are truly hundreds of different soft plastics out there with each one having drastically different profiles, and surface areas, which will impact the hook and weight choice, therefore we left that criteria out and stuck with plastic length as the primary factor.
Here is a sample output for a typical Largemouth fishing scenario. Shallow water, a short but thick soft plastic think beaver style, moderate vegetation, must keep light bottom contact, and most importantly, that buttery smooth fall that entices the majority of strikes. Confirmed to be good recommendations by the enthusiast.

Pro Tip
When fishing in vegetation, consider using a snell knot to improve your rig's strength and reduce the chances of snagging on grass. This technique can enhance your presentation and increase your catch rate!

Jacob, owner of The Tool Collective. I am an avid bass angler and have fished this technique more than anything else. It's what I know best when it comes to bass fishing. It is the most versatile rig out there and one every angler should aspire to master. I hope this tool can help people always make the perfect rigging choices, and improve their catch rates.
