TechniqueDrop ShotSeasonSpring (Post-Spawn)StructureSubmerged VegetationWent into the day expecting to powerfish (frogs, blade baits, etc). Caught one fish on a blade. Everything else was on a dropshot. 3/16 oz weight, 14” leader. Gamakatsu G-Finesse hook. Roboworm and a Yamamoto shad shape worm in GP turned the trick. On a day when several participants failed to get a limit, I was able 2 cull up twice significantly on a lake that yields a lot of cookie-cutter fish. No photos because it was a pre-season paper tournament. One more cull would’ve meant a win, but I settled for 4th out of 17. Good kickoff to the tourney season.
