hey Roger. You have awesome videos do you ever fish in washington near umatilla or plymouth.
if you’ve fished near tricities let me know of any spots you might know of. the columbia, snake and yakima all run through here.
Roger i just wanted to say i watched this video and not an hour after i was out on the lake using this same rig with a black zoom 6 inch worm and i nailed 3 3pound bass it was great i have never used drop shot before but i love it already! thanks alot i enjoy the videos!
ryan
you would use the palomar not with this rig right?
i like to use a 3 way swivle and about 2 feet of line to my sinker and the length of the pole im using for the line that goes to my bait
if you can see them they can see you. They are not smart but they are not dumb too. make longer casts. Fish at first light and on cloudy days. use smaller lures and you will start catching them.
Roger
hey, i have a question, so i fish at a lake where u could see the basses inside the water, everytime i cast something in there, they’ll stare at it then just swim away, i tried gulp, buzzbaits, jigs, spinnerbaits, frog, worms, leeches, and they won’t take anything. wat do u suggest i do?
The problem is in the hookset. With an open hook you reel and sweep into them. You do not need to do a hook set like you do with a texas rigged work. the fish are coming off because your hookset is to week or to fast and strong. A sweeping hook set is best. REEL DOWN BEFORE SETTING THE HOOK. make sure your hook point is sharp, if not change it out.
Roger
ok i have been getting a lot of hits but when i start reeling them in they get off of the hook a lot of the time. do you have any pointers? i’m positive they are small mouths, and i don’t think the fish are too big.
black and blue or browns work very good.
As for the weight use as little as you can. If you are fishing thick cover then use up to 1/2 oz or more if you must to get down to the fish.

One of my favorite ways to fish. I caught an 8 pounder while drop shottting. I also use swimbaits and catch plenty.
3 inch senko!!!!!! small topwater lures like a rapala.
thanks roger… but wat small lure do u suggest??

me 2 i used 2 fish 4 cat
well i am kinda new at bass fishing so how exactly do you rig it up??
When he casts? That’s how you have to cast a spinning rod.
it helps me feel the fish pick up the bait.
Not a great habit, but it helps sometimes.
Roger
what exactly are you doing when you are grabbing the string?
black and blue or browns work very good.
As for the weight use as little as you can. If you are fishing thick cover then use up to 1/2 oz or more if you must to get down to the fish.
Roger
THANK YOU!!!!!!
palimar (sp?) knot ALWAYS!!!!!
what kind of knot do you use to tie the hook for drop shot?
