Carolina Rigging is known as "Draggin'" in areas of Texas. Draggin'
often includes bass
fishing in weedy
reservoirs, which take
place during spring and
fall-specifically the
months of spring.
Anglers join to fish in
water at temperatures
between 50 degrees and
70 degrees, and will
often fish in areas
where clear water
present vegetation at
the bottom of the lake.
Anglers search for high
water stages, which the
depth is often five to
fifteen feet deep. In
addition, anglers join
to fish in water clarity
at 1 foot, and fish all
through the day.
Carolina rigging became
popular, as well as
Draggin', when one man
rated top 100 in the
BASSMASTER tournament at
Lake Sam Rayburn, Texas.
Jim Nolan caught at this
lake, 86 pounds 6
ounces; of bass,
strictly using the lure
anglers call the
"Carolina-Rig Lizard."
Today, anglers around
the world enjoy the
newest Carolina-Rig
inventions. The latest
Carolina-Rigs comprise
bullet sinkers, which
does not ride the muzzle
as that of Texas-Rig
bait. Carolina-Rigs
today produce better
action, and the lures
present slow anchors.
Rather the lures or what
anglers call
presentations drop
slowly onto the bottom
of the water.
Carolina-Rigged lures
base its cover of
density to consider
burying in the bait.
In short, Carolina-Rigs
received its name, since
anglers discovered that
in the bait, undersized
Draggin' took less
effort than that of
other strategies used in
bass fishing.
Carolina-Rigged lures
were modified by Yelas.
Yelas redesigned the
lures so that its one
once bullet sinker would
promote easy casting. In
addition, anglers are
able to study the bottom
of the waters with fewer
hassles. Moreover,
anglers can now fish at
depths far surpassing
the depths they could
fish at one time. In
summary, Carolina-Rigs
will rest at the bottom
of the lake even during
motion.
Carolina-Rigged lures is
a choice presentation
over the Texas-Rig, yet
some anglers still
prefer Texas. TIP:
Great bass fishing areas
include Potomac River,
Sam Rayburn Lake, Lake
Guntersville, Lake
Seminole, etc. Visit
Georgia, Texas, and
Alabama, to discover the
popular bass fishing
spots. Tip:
Pre-spawning and
Post-Spawning (spring)
is the best time to
enjoy bass fishing.
According to novice
anglers, Draggin' in the
fall should be conducted
at reservoirs. It is
advised that fishing be
done at the time weeds
are drawn, i.e. milfoil,
hydrilla, etc, start to
die and begin its spring
growth. In short,
fishing at the weed
lines is recommended.
TIP: Fishing in the
springtime is best if
you start before fish
begin spawning. During
this time, novice
anglers recommend that
you search for opposite
or the area where the
water shapes a "V' at
the rear end of the
water, or the arms of
the creek. Anglers tell
us to search for Vs near
weed lines since groups
of fish gather around
this area. Furthermore,
anglers are wise to fish
in the late hours of
daylight. Fishing
near shallow brush, or
areas where unwanted
plants exist is best
conducted in the
morning. After dawn, it
is recommended that you
move to another area,
specifically near brushy
areas. The sun often
migrate bass to these
areas. TIP: Draggin'
during sleep hours is
not optional, rather
switch lures to the
"Floating Minnow Plug,"
Tube Jig, or a light
weighted lizard. The
best time for bass
fishing is when fall
starts to draw down. At
this time of year,
shallows are exposed, as
well as the structure of
weeds. Anglers tell us
to search for areas
where fall drawdown
starts to reveal shallow
areas, which are bare
and presents deep weeds
in the district.
