So I've learned to hook up a plastic bait texas style, but I remain 
. First of all despite its supposed weedlessness, I actually get snagged up when I cast into weeds with it pretty much every cast. I'm not sure what the problem is, I have one of those hollow point bullet sinkers down over the head of the worm, but the sinker still seems to snag weeds.
Secondly, how do you actually hook a fish with the hook embedded in the plastic like that? Do you have to have a powerful hookset to drive the hook through the plastic and into the fishes mouth? Also, what areas would be best to work a texas rigged plastic worm?
