Rigging the lure on the hook is the same for a Texas rig or a Carolina rig. Insert the point of an offset hook into the front of the bait, run it through roughly 1/4 inch, and push the hook point back out of the plastic. Thread the plastic all the way up the hook, around the offset bend, and over the hook eye and knot.
How you rig depends partly on the kind of fish you hope to catch. Catfish usually search for food near the bottom, so you need weight to keep your bait near the fish. Crappies and many other panfish often swim a few feet beneath the surface, and a bobber will hold your bait up where the fish can see it. Keep it light.
