Old plug Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Would you use this drop shot rig??? The hook is a size 04 the weight is 1/2 oz and is located about 16 inches below the hook but it varies. Not shown is a swivel above the hook about 4 inches. The bait is a giant trick worm on this particular one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike jones Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 This is a great rig for flipping shallow bushes when the bass are suspended up in the cover. I believe a Japanese angler did this in a Bassmasters tourneys a few years ago and did well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old plug Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 I know that it is good. I carry it with me all summer. When I come upon a situation where I believe it is warranted I use it. I posted it to see what kind of a reaction it would get. A lot of these guys on here would not buy this Imam sure. It is nothing like what theyconsider the prescribed method of drop shotting .

Jerry Rapp Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 put a half ounce jig on as the drop shot weight. You can thank me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishinwrench Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Does anyone throw a Front Runner anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old plug Posted June 2, 2014 Author Share Posted June 2, 2014 I missed that Jerry sorry. i have never tried that. I would think there would be some attraction there though. I just wonder about getting it through stubble brush and a few other things like rocks. Could become a expensive drop shot weights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
