Im using the Bullet Weights Tungsten Screw-In Worm Weights for T-Rig on trip tomorrow. I need help on how these bullet weights screw-in to the worm? I tried them over weekend and it looked bad lol. Fairly new to these weights. I fished with toothpick in weight but thought these might save time.

 

Any one have picture how these are rigged? Anyone tell me in steps how to configure these weights into the plastic bait?

 

Link to the weights I bought a few months ago:

Texas rig your bait, when you initially put the hook into the top of the plastic go a little deeper with the tip of the hook. That will put the eye a little deeper in the plastic you are using so you will have enough plastic to then screw in your tungsten.

I use them a lot flipping and pitching visible grass.     When you insert the hook into the worm, insert it deeper so that you can screw the weigh in and it won't push on the top of the hook eye..  It also helps to bite off the very tip of  worm if it is rounded.  That gives you a flat surface to start the twisting motion..

FYI, screw in bullet weight is called the Florida rig, not Texas.
