Grampy...I have been using a drop shot rig for about 4 months now. I use the VMC drop shot set up. You can buy these on line at Bass Pro Shops & a few other places. The hook is built into the swivel so you get fewer line twists. I believe most people set the hook around 6-8 inches above the sinker, but I like to set it at around 4 inches. I use a 1/8 oz sinker & # 6 VMC hook. The past few trips I have been using 4 lb test line & night crawlers for bait. The only disadvantage with the VMC set up is that they are a pain to tie...so, I pre tie 4 or 5 at home before I go to minimize lost time on the water...that way only one knot is needed when fishing. Hope this helps... ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/07/full-93558-17322-img_1885.jpg)

Great thread. What was the bait please.
I wonder what time of year they spawn.

Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, he will sit in a boat all day and drink beer.
