Omnia Fishing reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Drop Shot technique and Daiwa Tatula LT Spinning Reel - EOL on Norris Lake.

Fish were holding on the steep bluff walls in their summer pattern and drop shot was the key. Had multiple big largemouth and smallmouth eat it on the fall. The Daiwa Rebellion 7-0ML is a fantastic drop shot rod with the perfect power and action for this technique.

Found groups of bass following bait balls of shad all day. 15'-25' of water suspended in the morning and closer to the bottom in the afternoon. Drop shot worked if you threw off to the side of the shad balls.
