Best Dropshot Weight

Drop shotting for bass and caught a walleye

Deeper weed beds in 13-15 FOW dragging a drop shot along the edge. It was a slow bite but quality fish! Spent the last hour of light skipping a wacky rig under docks.

Been having good luck with 10" Blue Gills on humps 20 to 28 feet of water using red worms on drop shot, 4# mono line

Adam Radovic reported catching Smallmouth Bass using the Drop Shot technique and WOO! Tungsten Drop Shot Weight - Tear Drop on Lake St Clair. Additional comments from this report: "Hot water temps have pushed the Smallmouth into full Summer pattern. Productive depths averaged 16-18ft. Isolated vegetation held groups of similar sized fish, competition was low between fish, and fishing pressure was high. Moving to 1/4oz from 3/8oz unlocked some bites."

Southshore Smallmouth Charters reported catching Yellow Perch using the Drop Shot technique and WOO! Tungsten Drop Shot Weight - Tear Drop on Lake St Clair. Additional comments from this report: "In late May and early June large numbers of big Lake St-Clair perch are feeding off shore. You can often find fish while side scanning deep expanses that are highlighted with sand spots with small short weed tuffs sprinkled in. The best way to target these spooky fish is with forward facing sonar as schools are constantly shifting and moving with pressure from both angling pressure as well as predators. 20’ deep is a good rule to start and look for schools of lake walleye in the area. If you find the walleye you will find the schools of big jumbos as we are all there for the same reason. "

Drifted flats and used livescope to find fish. Once located we would pitch out the drop shot and dead stick it on bottom around them.
