I explain my 2 carolina rig set ups for different situations in bass fishing different lakes at certain times of year. I go over the line, weights, terminal tackle, and rod and reel selection for fishing these rigs. They are are an easy way to catch bass when they are biting slow and hanging close to the bottom.

What is 2 ought?
Throwing a c rig on a baitcaster?? Thats already wrong 4 me
😂😂😂 holy crap rackley
Nice job man
Stopped vid after 30 seconds due to the annoying background music. I have no idea why bad generic music is on a fishing video.
Big LFG fan. Still watching these in 2019&2020
Never thought of pegging the weight on a carolina rig. Not a bad idea for some areas I fish.
Bobber stop is interesting. I’ll have to try that. What confuses me is why everyone uses fluorocarbon for the leader. Fluoro is more dense than mono and has a tendency to sink. I want my soft plastic floating behind the sinker. I like plastics that have air holes for extra buoyancy. I usually use 14 lb green mono for leader.
where do u get tungsten clackers at
Why not put a bobber stopper between the heavy tungsten weight and the knot attached to the barrel swivel? Not having anything protecting the knot is going to break the line at the knot 95% of the time and frankly it makes me really question your knowledge of fishing a Carolina rig at the least and as an angler at worst.
Are you saying don't use braid as a mainline either? or just making the case for a fluro leader?
I had to fast forward your video to skip the bullship talk why can't you just make a video in get to the point leave although mumble jumble out
Could you at some time demonstrate your knot you used in this video
I like lead.. dosen't get wedged in rocks so easy
I READ LEAD PIOSIONING CAN CAUSE BRAIN CANCER SO LET'S REDUCE I USE OF LEAD .THANK YOU
Would this be a good way to fish the bandito bug?
Outstanding video!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
I liked the video. Just want to say thank you for taking the time to make and share this with us.
Hey, great video man! Very professional and informative. Do you think you could post link to where you get your bobber stoppers? I'm always looking but they never seem to have the kind you show here at the local Wal Mart and they look really legit Lol. Thanks! And keep on making vids.
A good back to basics. You might want to show how you tie your knots. Great idea for a new "Bass to Basics" series lol. TkEZ»UK
I always use a texas rig. Can I use a bobber stopper on a texas rig to slide the bullet weight up the line to create a carolina rig? Will this work.
How would you cast this? Is it a type or pitch or could you just straight up cast 25/30 yards
You are the man, great info thx!
wow thank you for sharing with us the types of weights you are working with. Very helpful information for us newbies
Sir, I am not sure what you meant when you said that a tungsten weight is “Heavier and is lighter” Did you mean that it had less mass in size per weight? Or did you mean that it was lighter in color? I am just still trying to learn about Fishing. Thank You.
great video, thank you! could you show, in the future, how you tie the knots?
I get snagged on rocks all the time. How to get loose or not to be in that situation?
Correct me if I'm wrong but there is no scientific evidence that can see fishing line. The deeper the less visibility. It's fishermen that think/assume that fish see the line that make up these statements
I just lost a two tungsten weights haha. My fluoro didn't break. My 30lb braid broke on a snag. Tungsten is just too expensive. Back to lead/steel.
didn't think about this till later but I have to ask. Why use braid with fluorocarbon and not just fluorocarbon ? I've been trying to figure out lines I never gave it much thought. A video explaining lines in all scenarios would be awesome , thanks. good vid.
good info
if the fish wants what is on the end of you line they do not care (most of the time) if there is pink line going strait into it
what we're you using to cut the line?
Awesome video
That's what I needed! I never put the bobber stopper… and and always put the same strength line as my leader and would get stuck and lose the entire rig… thanks for the tip
Opie knows his thing. Thanks man
fish cant really see fishing lines. they go about their business like normal.
So if you are fishing deep (15-25 ft) stained water could you use green braid leader?
Also, I would think the the braid would help your plastics float better, yes ???
I would think with the bobber stops the fish would feel the heavy weight and drop the bait quicker?probably wrong,just thinking about it though
Is a medium heavy extra fast tip ok for a carolina rig/jigs?? Thanks for all your vids by the way, very informative!
What line snippers do you use
I know that's this video is a year old but what kind of boober stops are you using in this video and were can I get them. Thanks.
Good advice..Learn a great deal from this. Excellent. Thank you.
very good informative video. straight to the point. you should add in the actual knot tying or have a knot tying video. that way we can reference back to it.
I've been fishing for 30 years and steel mess up knots all the time
This is one of your better videos. Professional and to the point. You and Flukemaster are ny two favorites. Just cant watch ANY of the "googan" guys. Lunkers is alright but their videos are just too childish with little real content.
What about reel speed gear ratio
Where do you buy the tungson barrel weights? my local bass pro doesn't carry them.
You look just like Rory Mcilroy. Thanks for the video though 🙂
Thanks Justin! I really enjoy your rigging videos.
