Yesterday we all used 2oz jig heads with drop shot clips above them with plain hook with grubs, every fish though was on bottom fluke

Experiment with length of tag line from first jig head to second. A three foot tag line with a smaller 1/2 ounce jig head and a 4 inch fluke can out fish the heavier version due to the movement of the bait. Also much easier to pull stripers out of the tops of trees and not get hung !

Just placed my first RSR order so I'm prepared for next trip. Will be selling to my fishing buddies for a 40% markup when on the water...cash only.

What if..... and it's a BIG WHAT IF.... stay with me here...... you dropped an A-rig down deep to dead stick?
Heading to Texoma tomorrow morning, hoping to find the birds.... hope it's not too warm! Or too windy!

Heading to Texoma tomorrow morning, hoping to find the birds.... hope it's not too warm! Or too windy! you would have your limit in two or three drops. Best take a magazine to fill the rest of the time on the water.
