i use carolina rig when im surf fishing. vary the weight and hook size according to the species you're targeting.

i use texas rig for bass fishing in heavy cover, ie: kelp paddy. it's used to prevent/minimize getting hung up on stringers and such. remember to set the hook a little harder so the hook can penetrate through the plastic.
