Hey guys,
My local fishery has some muddy/murky water. I’ve done well catching swallies in the spring- catching them on rocky flats and boulders near vegetation. I can catch em good on search baits such as cranks-chatter-spinner baits and tubes in 6-10 foot. However once summer comes along the fish are gone from the shallow flats and I have a hard time catching.
I’ve never drop shot before but would love to try and learn this technique for this up coming summer.
My fishery has depths up to 35-40 feet, I imagine trying to catch em that deep would be on drop shot, however I’m not sure how well it’ll work in muddy water? Seeing as how it’s a very small and finess type presentation, would it not be ideal in dirty water?
Any tips and insight would be great, also general drop shot tips would be great. I have a Garmin with the works (side sonar etc..., so finding structure will be easy) should I look for bait balls? Boulders? Will it be worth it in dirty water?
Thanks!
