Do you have to use a drop shot hook for the drop shot? I get they are designed for a specific use, but will your production be lower if you Texas rig a worm or use a larger hook? I guess you will lose some of the action of the worm with a larger hook.

Any hook will work. Put a bobber and tie above and you have my "Daytona" rig (from 40 years ago). Good luck.

I could snag that.

The hook I use. 4/0
I always tex rig my dropshot.

1/0 Roboworm hook with bait keeper. 2/0 if your fishing 6” worms.

"Never rule out the impossible - happening to you" Orson Card said it (or something like it). Especially if you snag a rail of the Titanic . . .
That rig kept me fed in Daytona fishing the bridges and Ponce Inlet Jetty when I left a job paying $4+ an hour to go to aircraft school and could only find one that paid 1/2 that scrubbing airplane bellies. It was a tough go to say the least.

match the hook to the plastic used, not the technique. ie, there's not a "c-rig hook."

Match to line size as well.

I use a number 2 mosquito. Slow reel hook set. Pins them really good. The bigger the fish, they better they get stuck. I usually need pliers to unhook a 4+ pound fish. The hook barb is in the boney part of the upper jaw.

# 1 or 1/0 round bend with the bait t-rigged. There are just so many snags here that it is near impossible to fish an open hook. Caught them up to 9 lb. on this rig. I usually fish them in vegetation.

Also use the long cyndrical weight around wood and in grass.

What sizes of each of those do you use?

This. Unless in cover and then I'll use offset hook.

Yep, a hammer doesn't work very well on a screw.
