Drop Shot Plastics???

[midnighthrasher]

I hear alot of people saying they use roboworm in aarons magic for dropshotting. What roboworm is that??? There are several models. Also if you have any other baits to suggest for dropshotting it would be helpfull. Thanks

Hey midnighthrasher,

You can drop shot with many different baits but, give these a shot:

(I use the 3" most often)

The Roboworm I think you want is the Shakin Zipper in the Zipper Worm models.

Here are my favorites drop shot baits.

Four inch Strike King finesse worm in coppertreuse.  They are indestructible.  Cannot tear.  I rig it this way.  The point of the hook enters the bottom side of the body about a quarter inch from the nose.  Then bring the point out through the nose.  I want the chartreuse on the bottom, so the hook enters in the middle of the chartreuse band. 

Where the hook enters will be the bottom of the bait.

The other baits are Yamamoto Flappin Hog, and 3 3/4 inch Crawdad, and the 4" Zoom lizard.  For rigging these, the hook is inserted into the nose to a depth of about 3/4", then exited out the center of the top side.

The possibilities are endless.

The finesse worm and flappin hog have been the best producers.  But, on days when they are nibbling at the tail of these baits, I switch to the smaller crawdad.  On those days, it works best.

I throw the Robo worms a lot.  I prefer the Body Shad and FX Sculpin.

I drop shot with:

Worms

Grubs

Craws

Creatures

Lizards

Jerkbaits

Tubes

In practical terms, you can dropshot with anything you want, doesn 't have to be a worm or a particular brand/style/size bait.

my favorite drop shot lure is the fish belly hawg shad sold at ***.  It's very lifelike to me.  That's what I use most of the time, and then I also use zoom flukes

Last year, Senko imitations were my most productive dropshot baits.  Bass Pro Stickos, paddle tail sticko, Chompers, and Gulp sinking minnow.  These are all thicker plastic baits that last longer than the softer Senkos.  I'd use the Gulp bait all the time, except it dries out quick when you're not using it.

I use Berkley Gulp 3" Leech

and Strike King 4" 3X Elaztech Finess worms

I've fished both (close to the same color) at the same time (alternating) and the Berkley Gulp was getting hit twice as much. Sounds like a commercial, huh? As mentioned earlier, hook through the body and out the nose.

Good luck!

My most productive drop shot bait for the past 6 months has been the ragetail baby craw.  It has outproduced roboworms, trickworms, and senko style baits for me. 

[SWMIBASSER]

My absolute best drop shot worm was a "slim senko" that I bought in packs of 100 a couple years ago, on ebay. I wish I would have saved the seller. Those were killer.

[Blade-Runner]

Zoom Meat Head.

I like Net Bait's finesse worm in Alabama craw and so do spotted bass.  8-)

Skinny Bear Shad Eye 2

For the roboworms, aarons magic is a color offered in several different styles of their plastics

I got a 4" tiki stick in bruised organge color

Also, a 5" giggy stick by gambler

I was thinking of using a 3" walleye grub for a smaller profile for smallmouth. It's simple but smallmouth usually don't mind a grub one bit.
