It's the presentation. Perch have excellent eyesight so if the "worm" is too close to the weight or if the hook is too big and obvious they won't go for it. Also, there's far too much wiggling here. The weight should be stationary on the bottom with only the worm moving
try jigging next, the weights are either getting in the way when you try and jig it, or they move way too much and pulls the fishes attention away from the hook. If you want to drop shot, use live bait like worms or minnows. They will move for you.
Fish were interested in the worm that was being correctly teased with the weight remaining on the bottom. The other worm with the weight above the bottom flopping around garnered no interest.
They don't want that red plastic. Put a minnow on and I bet they will nail that left and right. Bottom bouncers should have 2 hooks with minnows and a lighter weight that you leave on the bottom and let the minnows do their thing. One minnow a foot off bottom and one two feet up. You can get some doubles that way. Never spend that long watching fish deny a lure. Switch up after 5 minutes at the most.
I keep wanting to use lures, but hell man, I catch the most fish by far on worms. I'm fairly new to walleye fishing and I've caught more of them dragging a worm than I have with any type of jig or plastic. Hell I even get pike on worms from time to time. Worms catch fish.
Smaller lure probably. something you might use for trout for of worked like those tiny worms with rubber little squid legs. Trout jig I think it's called lol
Zdecydowanie widać na tym filmie, że bardziej są zainteresowane zbieraniem przynęty z dna, a nie z toni. Stąd przy tej technice bywa sporo pustych brań (uderzenia w ciężarek) to może być sygnał żeby przerzucić się na zwykłą główkę.
DROPSHOTTING "It opened my eyes to a new sport!" Ha! Ha! REALLY ?????? It does'nt seem to work on a stunned yellow - Perch Population! Watching them Scandinavian Videos and their finicky lures it seems to work on their oversized yellow perches!
