Can you give an example how you would rig up something unpegged? I am not
getting it. Are you talking about using an inline weight as opposed to a
slipshot that grabs on to the line? I use a small inline weight with a
slip
bobber if I am using live bait for crappie such as minnows.

Here's an illustration of a Texas rig. If you leave that sinker free to slip
up and down the line, it's unpegged. If you jammed a piece of toothpick into
the hole of the sinker at the narrow end, such that it couldn't slide on the
line, that's pegged.
