I mainly know a Zoom Baby Brush Hog as a favorite for a Carolina Rig soft plastic - what are your favorite ways to rig a Baby Brush Hog ?

Shakey head and Texas are the only 2 ways I rig them.

T-rig, c-rig. That’s It for me. 
I cut a super hog and use It as a jig trailer though.

They’re my #1 C-rig bait. Good for T-rigging as well.

I have had good luck using it on a drop shot for sight fishing  bed fish

Had the hook 6" to 8" above the weight and t-rig style hook so it was weedless

They've been my #1 finesse pitching plastic for years.  I pretty much always have a Baby Brush Hog or a Super Hog tied on when I am largemouth fishing.  A blue fleck Baby Brush Hog with a T-rigged 2/0 EWG hook with a 3/16th oz sinker has put a lot of fish in the boat for me over the years.

Texas rigged with a 3/16oz tungsten weight, absolute summertime killer up here. I will switch up the weight size occasionally between 1/4oz and 3/16oz. 12lb Flourocarbon.

I'm a big fan of weightless Texas-rigging them. Holds a special place since it's what got "the one that started it all" for me.

Guess those appendages don’t need much weight to get going, like the Berkley Pit Boss does (one of my favorite jig trailers for a fast reaction bite, but I tend to throw a 5/8oz jig to get full effect).
 

Nice to know you can scale the Brush hog back to 3/16 or 1/4oz of weight for a smoother presentation.

T-rig with 3/16 or 1/4 oz.  
 

I havnt thrown them much.  I threw the christy critter more 4-5 yrs ago.  Cristy critter wasn’t as durable though

I fish them Texas rigged with varies weights, sometimes fixed ,sometimes not. I’ve all so used a wobble head jig.

I always Texas rig mine On a Gamakatsu 2/0 offset round bend hook with an 1/8 ounce sinker. I very rarely use anything heavier than an 1/8 ounce.

X2 on the wobble head. It’s my favorite way to fish them.
