bass wrangler569 Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 What are your favorite plastics for dropshotting? I need to stock up on my dropshotting supplies for a tournament next week so I'm going to be placing TW order in the next couple of days. Any suggestions? The roboworm alive shads look pretty good and so do the jackall crosstails. Quote
Christop73 Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 We slayed em last weekend using these on a dropshot rig. http://www.***.com/descpageSFTSTRIKE-SXFW.html Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted June 9, 2009 Super User Posted June 9, 2009 Berkley realistix 4 inch power minnow.Getting really hard to find them now though but standard zoom fluke works pretty well too. Other than that I like zoom trickworms and finesse worms rigged wacky. Quote
Primus Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 4" & 6" Roboworm Straight tail worms, Gulp leeches & minnows. Quote
CODbasser Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 4" inch robo worm....aarons magic and oxblood crawler Quote
Steven Ladner Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Around here, Zoom finesse worm in junebug Quote
dmac14 Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Gulp, actually the only bait I have dropshotted with so not sure about the others. My buddy uses the roboworm and has success. Quote
BenoBreath Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 Try dropshotting a Zoom tiny brush hog, on a #4 or #2 Gammy split/drop hook. TW has them for 2.79 for 15 baits. Decent color selection too. GOOD LUCK ! Quote
Super User J Francho Posted June 9, 2009 Super User Posted June 9, 2009 I'll drop shot just about any soft plastic, big or small, but a few of my favorite finesse sized baits are: Gulp! Alive Minnow Gulp! Nightcrawler Berkley 4" Power Worm Berkley Hand Pour Finesse Worm GYCB Kut Tail Worms GYCB Shad Shaped Worm Quote
Super User Crestliner2008 Posted June 9, 2009 Super User Posted June 9, 2009 I started off with 4" worms about 6 years ago. Have worked my way through PowerBaits, HUD Helgies, minnows, Senkos and a host of other DS baits. My most productive so far has been the Powerbait minnows. That being said, I firmly believe that it is less a matter of what you use as much as where you use it. You have to be fishing it over a good structure that contains bait. If you meet this criteria, bass will strike just about anything you present properly. Mind you, I'm talking smallmouth bass and clear water >20' deep. I've bought a few packs of Gulp minnows and leeches. Not impressed with it so far, but I'll be giving it a thorough workout over the up-coming months. Just starting out, you cannot beat a plain ole' straight tailed worm. But the sky is the only limit with it comes to what you can present on the DS. Try a tube even! Quote
bigfish88 Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 robo worm, senkos and trick worms work for me... real goood! Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted June 9, 2009 Super User Posted June 9, 2009 4-6'' straight tail Roboworms, *** DS and finesse worms Quote
RockvilleMDAngler Posted June 9, 2009 Posted June 9, 2009 If the bass are not hitting a drop shot zoom finesse worm then they won't hit anything else on a dropshot. Quote

infiltwb Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 maybe i'm weird, but depends on the rig, if i'm using an inline hook i'll run a senko or gulp alive leech/nightcrawler. I'f i'm dropping off of a 3way, gulp alive 4" minnows. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted June 10, 2009 Super User Posted June 10, 2009 Berkley powerbait 3" power minnow, berkley powerbait 3" pulse worm, and the Yamamoto 3.5" cut tail worm. Some like to drop shot 3" senkos too. Quote
