drop shot and crank bait fishing does not work!

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

drop shot and crank bait fishing does not work!

Post by CNs »

We only boated about 75 fish on one day and about 60 the next. Only small fish we caught were 4 rock bass (The mightiest game fish ever!) 3 gills and 4 undersized smallies. All other fish were 3 lbs and up. thees are the 3 picture worthy.

Crank Bait Smallie Absolutely crushed a Storm Arashi flat 7 on a Dobyns 765 RM CB Lew BB1 5:1 reel. Sniper FC floro in 10 lb test.

Drop shot maven proving drop shots DON'T work. GLX drop shot rod, Stradic C14 using 10lb nano, floro leader . Jackall crosscut shad in some colour he wouldn't tell me so I can't tell you.

Image

Drop shot a large? in ten feet of water in the weeds you bet . My Simax Great Lakes rod and X-zone mini slammer did all the work.

These were the Plus 5 lbs picture worthy fish. anything less we barely got the net out for.

The camera lens looks like it was on drugs.
Nothing hits a crank bait like a smallie.
