DROP SHOT BASICS - Starts with Right Set Up 

*Great reel, **enjoyable.fishing** recommend very smooth and I love that you can change from left hand to right hand so easily. Gave it a 4 on durability because I haven’t had it long enough to rate it. Doing good so far.*

Man this guy is the real deal answering questions and what not anyone else would ignore. I kinda wish I needed some baits so I could go out and support Missile Baits! Too bad I bought tons of tackle before he was in business!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I appreciate the details that you covered. Learned a lot!

Showing the nosehook rig presentation was helpful. Thanks.

Great video!!! I found a lot of the same issues with the weight difference as well. I also noticed over the years that there is a different time to use the cylindrical shaped weights will give you unbelievable action vs the less active cannonball shapes. Both are crucial in the structure you fish in but I found out that when it really counts,.... you can't beat the cylindrical shaped for more intricate finesse fishing. The retrieve is a extremely slow & I add the lightest shake possible. Like sprinkling salt on a steak. Then leave it setting & usually it gets picked up lightly and you sweep hook it. I do like a 7'6" rod because I'm 6'1" tall. Thank you for sharing this one 👊

Great videos as usual. Love these types where you explain fundamental fishing styles. Also congrats on your placement at the classic.

Thanks for the video. I’ve been doing the drop shot wrong until your video

Excellent video...very informative! 👊💪

Awesome video very thoroughly done... Awesome Camera work

I like when people like you just stick with the basic of life when talking to someone than just going out of space somewhere with what they are talking about to someone about this material world stuff that come and go So you talking the basic how to do it and I like that bro So tell the others to come back down to earth or stay in space with making life hard for others on earth!? Thank you for keeping it real and not making it so hard for others to learn!! Zarail aka Z

Thanks for the drop shot wisdom.

Great video thanks!!

That video pretty much covered all the stuff to drop shot, now I just need to slow my fishing down to practice it. 🎣🐟

This video made me go out and buy some Bomb Shot baits. Can't wait to fish them. :)

Hey John, great video. Quick question for you, a medium/heavy rod isn't too heavy for drop shot?

John. Can I do the same drop shot detup with a baitcasrer, medium fast rod?

Great vid, is a #4 gamakatsu ewg too small? Also I use a #2 finesse hook for nose hooking, is that o.k?

Man, and here I was confident to spool a whole reel of 6lb fluorocarbon and now your saying use braid. I thought that you want a little stretch when dropshotting with 1 or 1/0 hooks so they don't straighten out. I was just heading to the store to get a Loomis 4-8 lb 6' 10" dropshot rod set-up and now I'm questioning myself again! Gah.... Our local fishery has a bunch of smaller to mid sized spotted bass, thats why I thought I'd go so light.

Unreal! lol #wildbill #YoBoss!

I finally did a successful Rig

So what action is the rod is it medium or medium light

What size is the EWG hook?

Hey John, great vid! what oz weight would you recommend for fishing deep brush piles, like 25ft or more? Trying to catch some of these suspended fish in and around them. Also would you cast to or vertically drop to them? Thanks!!

Is your rod a 7'4 medium fast?

John, do you use a swivel and what knot do you use for the hook?

Hi. How long the fluoro leader if I fish in no more than 10-15 feet deep water?

What rod is this and is this available to public? Thanks

What was the reel speed of your reel? Also size

Check it out. I use a 7'10" medium g loomis pro green saltwater spinning rod. A Shimano vanford 2500 top off with 4lb test Seagarflour, a mosquito hook and love the kid baby z too

Love the video.. but bomb shot bluegills always tear off the tail

Haha that thing made wanna eat it

You remind me of paty mayo just by the looks but you have a better channel then him

DoooooD!!!! You rigged the finess. And then showed a Texas. I’m calling bullschtein!!! Invoking the JAG rule!!! You tried to pull a fast one!!! I watched it twice!! You said one thing and showed another. BS!!!!
