BUYER'S GUIDE: Dropshot Fishing – Best Baits, Rods, And Tackle!
Today's Buyers Guide is all about dropshotting for bass! Dropshot fishing is a core technique that every serious angler needs to master. Today we're exploring the different worms, rods, and terminal tackle that shine with this technique. We're also throwing in some key tackle tips that will make a huge difference when you're fishing!
In the beginning dropshot fishing seems really simple. You suspend a worm and shake it to draw fish in. As time goes on you'll learn that subtle differences in the baits and hooks make a huge difference in your catch rates as conditions change. Today the guys are breaking down their favorite baits for different situations and explaining how each one should be rigged.
Below you'll find links to the baits, terminal tackle, and rods we showed throughout the video. We've listed them in the order they appeared and included favorite sizes and colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each.
