Hey fishing guys and gals. I'm trying to master the micro dropshot. What are your favorite baits to dropshot for panfish. Let's talk about it. I like 1" gulp minnows but trying to expand my arsenal. Thanks in advance!!!

The two best drop shot anglers I know are Steve and Fred aka the Rionator. Both these guys have posted many of fish caught using the drop shot with Gulp Alive products. ![hooked hooked](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smileyhooked.gif)

wug...earthworms/wigglers all work great...but I changed for the same reasons. Catches just as many fish/dont have to store in the frige/less mess & way more convenient.

There are many flies that work great drop shooting. Also Nightcrawlers! ![hooked hooked](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smileyhooked.gif) Side Note: Just about every fish loves a worm! ![hooked hooked](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smileyhooked.gif)
