- It's always a blast and learning experience spending an afternoon in the boat chasing bass with Shaw Grigsby, especially in his home state of Florida. Given all the grass in Florida, a Texas-rigged worm was the first bass lure he mastered, and he's continued to evolve how he uses it. In this video, Grigsby gives us an excellent tutorial on how he swims worms and excellent tips to increase your hookup ratio.
TACKLE USED
• WORM - Strike King Cut R Worm, 7-inch: wired2.fish/3ljnmkj
• HOOK - Lazer TroKar MagWorm Hook 5/0: wired2.fish/3Njl3tl
• WEIGHT - Eagle Claw Pro Series Lead Worm Weight: wired2.fish/EagleClawProWormWe...
• ROD - Team Lews Pro-Ti Speed Stick Casting Rod: wired2.fish/LewsProTiCastingRod

• LINE - Seaguar AbrazX Fluorocarbon Line: wired2.fish/SeaguarAbrazX
A Texas rig is the ultimate in versatility, allowing you to fish fast or slow, horizontally and vertically. For these reasons, it plays excellently for covering water, then killing the bait when you come across a hole in the grass or bass bed. However, a common problem with Texas-rigging worms is having the bait slide down the shank and bunch up around the hook on a hook set - this prevents hook penetration. Grigsby shares a couple of excellent rigging tips to curb this problem and lead to more catching.
Lastly, he discusses the importance of rod angle when retrieving the bait and giving the bass a little time before setting the hook. He shares his typical rod, reel, and line setup for swimming worms anywhere in the country when bass are shallow and relating to grass.

This guy is the Hickok45 of fishing
Yeah very true
I couldn't help but think the same thing, lol
Lol you said it now I can never un-see it. xD
I subscribed @1:24 into it when I read the comment ….”Hickok45”……
It helped watching this man work a rig so naturally that it makes it come to life. All while explaining it in a such a manner that I felt that I can do this or I’m at least a bit wiser than before.
Hope it can now live up to the extremely high expectations that I’m hoping for……….
I seen your comment and I subscribed because hickok45 is the truth 💯🤣🤣
Those ppl who thumbed down this video most likely don even fish cause I think this is one of the most helpful fishing tips I've come across.
I followed his style and I've been cathing fish all over Sacramento Ca.
Thanks for the tip...
Shaw has a real love for fishing. It's so evident in the way he's laughing and having a real fun time on the water. You can see that fishing is in his blood.
Absolutely, full of joy with every single fish he catches. He's wired "2" fish for sure!
What has impressed me the most over the years is no matter the situation Shaw has a great attitude. I watched him finish close to last in an MLF tournament and he was laughing and giggling like he just won first. Great man of faith.
I'm in Florida, fishing bass for the first time - Dad died at 13, finally have a good job so I'm using my extra time to learn bass fishing! This swimming the worm video is awesome, thank you so much for the down home informative content! 🤩🧠🥰🙏✌️🤙
Thank God you watch Gerald swindle
Hey Bryant I'm sorry about your dad my dad passed away a long time ago and I've never got over that. But have a great fishing season this year and God bless you and your family. Ps I've never tried one of those swimming worms I'll have to try that out this year.
0:30 The boat driver is like "Ok, gotta get out of this shot real quick".
"....they get their lip ripped off and it's a good thing" lol
How could anybody not want to spend a day in the boat with this legend?
It's great finding him here on TH-cam - I grew up watching Shaw and the other legends catch fish, but over the years fishing shows became few and far between, until nowadays when you need to order an Outdoor Channel just to see em. Finding Shaw, Jimmy Houston, Roland Martin, and Bill Dance is like seeing uncles you've missed for years.
He would be the most in-demand fishing guide if he ever wanted to do that.
Shawn has a huge heart for helping anyone
For sure, absolute class act.
Its shaw @ d.fox
@@Wired2Fish Shaw is great and he enjoys himself at this game fishing he deserves everyone's respect
Shaw is one of my favorites. Worm Master.
Actually met him at a show in Rockland CC, in NY. After his seminar he talked and couldn’t be any nicer. He showed me his knot for fluorocarbon and dude it plain just works!! I was breaking my fluorocarbon with Paloma knot. He cured that problem and showed me good spinning reel tips!! Great guy!!
What was the knot
@@jheissongaona3935
He never gave me a name of it. He just showed me had me try it and it’s lights out!! When you tie right it actually clicks when you do it. If you don’t feel / hear the click it will break off by hand...crazy!!
Ok is it like a clinch knot? Cmon bud your comment would be more valuable if you described something other than a click.
Shaw seems like such a nice guy 🔥
He is a ton of fun to be around!
His show was lit
The guy is a great teacher....I could listen to him all day.He is a Gator Fan and so am I.
Been watching Shaw since the "One more cast" days. Wealth of knowledge!
We love picking his brain!
Dude that was my favorite show, taught me about the buzzbait, that helped catch me some nice bass as a kid
I remember the Suwannee river bass episode. Back in the day when he use to fish for Strike King. Oh the good ole days of tv bass fishing.
Great to see Shaw, and I will be checking out that Rapid Fishing Tool now.
Good stuff Shaw! 👊🏼💯🇺🇸
Thanks for the tips my friend!
he'll always be one of my all time favorite bass fisherman. got to meet him at the Classic in 2003 when I was a 15 year old wannabe pro bass fisherman. how could you not love Shaw Grigsby
You always get the best info from the best in the business!! No substitute for experience, Thx Shaw.
Living legend!
I love watching Shaw fish. Feel free to feature him more on this channel. Such a class act! Just watching this short video makes me want to blow off all my responsibilities for the day and head to the lake. Great tips and a joy to watch! God bless!
I really like shaw's fishing good stuff thanks
If I had a day to fish with any one person of my choice, it would be Mr. Shaw Grigsby.
Behold the power of the mustache!! Great tips from a great angler!
SO good to see you health again! I'm buying a few packs of those worms tomorrow. Thx!
Thanks for watching Gregg and good luck worming. P.S., like the mustache on the little dude in the profile pic.
@@Wired2Fish my now 15 year old son was attempting to look like me. Lol.
Great tip for keeping the worm from sliding down the hook. Thanks!
I went out to the local river this past weekend on a Saturday. Everyone was fishing top water, spinners, whopper ploppers because of the flooding and all the grass that's grown. One guy had one bite in an hour. Meanwhile I ended up with 24 bass in 3 hours thanks to your video, 5 inch super salt brown finesse worm showed em all up. Fishing it slow def helped, a few times I went to rig up another pole after a cast and found myself with a fish on the end a minute later.
Love this video Shaw!!! I love your personality and your enthusiasm!!! Awesome video!!! Great catches!!!🎣💯💥
Thanks for watching!
Just returned from Lake George. Caught my personal best with the exact rage tail. 8lbs. 12oz. Enjoy your videos and make sure I watch as many as I can before coming to Florida.
Real technique teaching on this video thank you so very much.
Great technique on lakes with a lot of slime on bottom. I use it all the time.
Man love your video ❤all the best
I'm from the Midwest and I love using the Texas rig. Casting over some thick heavy cover when people are looking at ya like your crazy haha
This video was awesome. I learned a lot from it, I’m glad you went into such detail.
Glad it was helpful Derek. Good luck out there this year.
Awesome video!
You have really helped me become a better fisherman. Your knowledge and ability to explain and breakdown techniques is incredible.
Thank You!
Like the way he explains setting the hook.
Us too, so easy to jump the gun on the hook set, especially with soft plastics that require a relatively big, single hook in their mouth.
Go Shaw!
The absolute basic of bass fishing, Texas rigged purplish plastic worm. Reminds me of my youth as well and I’m from Texas!
Takes many of us back to simpler times and wondering why we have 85,000 different baits when a few proven staples are usually all you need 😂.
My number 1 lure last year was a 10” Berkeley tequila sunrise power worm with a 1/4 oz weight with a 5/0 mustard power lock.
My number 2 lure was a Mann’s baby 1 minus lemon shad with red hooks. (I changed the hooks)
My number 3 lure was a chompers 4” black/blue fleck tube craw with no weight and a 3/0 mustard power lock.
There were others but these 3 lures caught most of the bass I caught in Minnesota last year.
If you fish Minnesota these might be worth a try.
Good luck out there 🎣
Great technique during the spawn. Bill Lowen has very good information regarding this technique as well...
Great video and thanks for the tips!
Glad you found a little value in it!
Man he is disciplined. I have a hard time waiting. I'm working on it.
a definite favorite on the mlf
Sempre ótimas dicas esse canal !! Topppp
Obrigado por assistir!
Middle aged feller getting into fishing and its exciting looking forward to some more vids
Great video
Awesome tips
Glad you like them!
The white phantom from the river! 😆
Nice video!
I really love fishing and i watch the fishing tutorial i learn a lot for this like of content , but i don't a fishing equipment/gear/tool
The Cut-R-Worm is SOOOO good🔥
No doubt!
Yes it is!!
thanks Dr Phil!
Anytime!
Clown comment. The circus is here boys!
Thanks bud great video like always..i love those worms i have them in red bug type of color . I to let them eat the bait a little bit before setting the hook and i without gut hooking the fish. We land way more fish i guarantee that because of 3 more seconds..thanks again and God bless.
Appreciate you adding your thoughts here Bruno. Good fishing to you this year.
I use a swim bait hook with a screw lock (so it doesn’t bunch up) and weightless and swim it over and threw vegetation. Great way to catch a 5 fish limit.
Thanks for sharing here. That's one of our favorite rigging styles too. We filmed that exact vid a few years back with Wired2fish's Jason Sealock --> th-cam.com/video/IZuomFkvbNY/w-d-xo.html
7:52 "oh it's a pig!" 🤣😂
When that weight moves away from the worm it looks like the worm is chasing bait. Pretty cool as well
Fish don’t have hands? What!? Since when!? Nah great video especially the tool and toothpick hack gonna be trying that
Shaw great tips. One question, when you use the toothpick to peg the worm so it does not slide down the hook shank. Are you pushing the toothpick through the eye of the hook buried in the head of the worm or just through the body of the worm near the top or at the bend of the hook?
Muito bom 👏👏👏
I use that toothpick trick! I keep a glass jar of them soaking in garlic oil in my tackle bag.
Just saw this after an evening of lake fishing from the side. I know there's fish in that lake but I wasn't having any bites with nightcrawlers, crank bait, or 3inch paddles...
I was having a hard time casting farther out with my spin set up. Any tips? I have those worms and hooks I just didn't know how to rig them..
I thought Shaw was wearing a HazMat suit at first. LOL!
Do you peg the weight? What size weight you suggest?
Do you always drop the rod when they hit or is that technique specific to the worm?
Hi I have a question for you do 2 pound fish fight crazy
I used it that way a lot
Ok... it never occurred to me that I might be missing fish due to the worm bunching up. Putting some toothpicks in my kayak today. Thanks:-)
6:06 Yes.
Calls bull on this statement 2:22.🐟🐟
It works well in deeper water too just slow rolling it
Google: (says that you can only hold your breath for 2 minutes.)
Under water footage camera man: Those numbers are insultingly low.
Ha, a pole camera helps a bunch!
I just figured out my current dilemma. Up in Northern Wisconsin we are in a sever drought. Lakes are down 3 feet or so. My lake is spring fed but it is busy trying to feeds 26 other lakes and is down at least 18 to 20 inches. Weeds are thicker than I have ever seen them. Weeds are matting on top in areas never before seen.
Squarebills & Chatter Baits are not working this year. Some success with Whopper Ploppers in some open surface.
I will try this method tomorrow. I got too close to the trees to see the forest.
For years i fished a unpegged weight some dudes gave me crap but ehat they didn't know I pegged it when needed
What is the weight on the sinker?
How is the motorguide ?
I feel the key to bass fishing is owning a boat. You never get much bass from fishing on the shore.
Hello. On this video the texas rig here comes with a leader or just staight-up texas rig?
Hi Jerome, not fully tracking the question. The Texas rig consists of a weight slid up the fluorocarbon main line followed by the hook and a weedless-rigged plastics.
@@Wired2Fish alright. I appreciate the reply. The reason i was asking because i see a lot of versions of texas rig.
Use a owner twistlock instead or a traditional ewg hook
We hear you Chris! Made this exact video a few years back with Wired2fish's Jason Sealock --> th-cam.com/video/IZuomFkvbNY/w-d-xo.html
Here in central florida we gotta drag speedworms
Shaw uses speed worms in tourneys I bet.....strike king makes good plastics but everyone grew up on Zoom. All soft plastics besides a Yamamoto senko are chasing Zoom for soft plastics dominance. He is a businessman first and foremost. But if you think he dont have Zoom in his box as well, you are naive. Not you personally but you know.
Agora achei um canal Power
He said “imma try to use this for one more fish” on fish number 2. I’ve caught 14 bass on the same worm before.😏 he did say if it moves they’ll bite it
What size weight
Nice description under title.
Defines the video
Is anybody fishing a swimmin worm on a tokyo rig yet? In slightly less heavy vegitation Im thinking that it would work even better.
Proof that TH-cam is messing with views. 1.1 mil likes and 200k views with a few hundred comments. Weird to say the least…
CONSUME CONSUME CONSUME. Bet he uses zoom speed worms when that tournament is on the line.
This is the good stuff right.
here but i got $5
for anyone who can count How many times shaw says rage tail
I didn't realize he was the dude in breaking bad
Shallow lakes with lots of vegitation is ALL I have to fish unless I want to drive 2 or more hours so I already orderd (no one near me has any left OTC already) swimming worms made by Striking Berkeley and Zoom as since mid April till fall weed kill crankbsits are useless for 90% of the areas of my lakes nearest my home
8:00
Hikok is that you
Is that a Caymas boat??
Or a Triton? 🤔
Oh I see not a Caymas...
Either a Triton or Phoenix
Hey David, it is a Triton
Swimmin a worm... Is just like a swimbait...
I swim a worm more than I hop it off the bottom
Anyone know why his fingers look orange?
Sometimes the sun gets really bright during filming and you'll get a little over saturation when color correcting the raw footage. Sorry!
Coulda been buffalo wings and flaming hot Cheetos too🤷🏻♂️
Shaw needs to narrate audio books
Great call! He does has a mesmerizing voice.
Tequila sunrise > june bug
Today I learned bass don’t have hands
🤜🤛😂😂😂🎣🎣🎣🎣👍👍👍👍🙏🔔🔔👈
