Perch, which was then eaten by a pickerel. I took off the pickerel, and kept both fish ;D I'd say snapping turtles, but we actually fish specifically for them haha. When we can't get a ride (niether me or fishing budy drive), we bike to a little pond nearby. It's chocced full of sunfish (similar to bluegill, don't know if it's the same fish :-/ ). So, we catch a sunfish, get it nice and bloody, keep it on our lines, and catch snappers with it. They're fun ;D

Thanks alot guys! I'm gonna try this on perch tomorow. Last weekend I only got 2, let's try and top that with a drop shot ;D P.S. Nice article Mike! Haven't read it all, but will finish it later tonight.

Cool, thank you! I'm gonna try this tomorow (it'll be on perch, but hey ;D).

Thanks alot guys! Has anyone here tried replacing the hook with something else, like a twister, or is this pointless? What about ice fishing? Seems like this would be good for ice fishing, as the way I was taught to ice fish was to leave your hook a couple inches above the ground. Thank you!

Awsome, thanks alot! I'm home sick today, so will deffinitly be reading up on it 8). You said you don't fish it much because you shore fish? So this isn't good for shore fishing? Also, has anyone tried this for ice fishing? (I know this isn't an ice fishing forum, but it's getting toward the season, and I'm just aching to get out there ;D). Thanks! P.S. This forum is the best fishing forum I've found. All the other ones are either area specific (and none in my area), saltwater, or just inactive.

Hi, new member here! I'm just wondering a few thigns abotu this. a) Is that a weight at the bottom? What are the advantages of using this apposed to another method? Thanks! I realize this may be a dumb question, but hey, answer this, and that's 1 less dumb question I'll be asking in the future Thank you!
