1st Drop Shot Bass!

[Juan Grande]

Pic of my first ever bass on a drop shot. Not a huge fish, but a healthy 2 1/2 pounder. I was using a VMC spinshot drop-shot hook and a Lake Fork Ring Fry. We were fishing some rock in about 12' of water. My bro-in-law proceded to catch fish on his next five casts off the same piece of structure with a t-rigged weighted senko, but I was happy with my first and only drop shot fish!

You should thank me since I found the xmas trees on that spot and definitively located the rock pile.

You should also thank me for not fishing it that morning and letting you guys catch those fish.

Drop shot bass are a blast. I really just started drop shotting last year, and really enjoy it.

Sometimes they hit like a ton of bricks, other times the fish is just kind of there and you never feel a hit, others you feel a tap tap tap, and still others the line just starts moving as the bass grabs your bait and swims away.

Congrats on the first drop shot bass....I still remember my first from last year.

i've messed around with drop-shotting shallow water (5 fow and less) this summer when the bass have been less aggressive, and had a lot of success and fun doing it. definitely a different way to fish than what i'm used to!

It's not worth the hassle.

Rum, you should thank me for introducing you to that lake that you now fish twice per week. What!?

And that ladies and gentlemen is called putting me in a BOX and closing the lid.

Well Played John!
