Best Dropshot Hook

Caught several good small mouth Fishing offshore structure that had submerged grass. Threw a drop shot most of the time but would pickup the Ned rig when they stopped biting and pick off a few more. Trying to find a spot you can sit still on with all the recreational boat traffic is the hard part.

I was finding fish in 20-30’ of water on main lake points. I was using a 6” straight tail worm on a drop shot setup. Morning dawn colors seem to be working best.
