It is funny as sheet leading big fish around the boat with 8-10-12-15 lb line on a drop shot. Just need a decent hook or that drag has to be fine tuned. One must choose their battle ground wisely though. I hear that.

A few years ago I was fishing a steep drop, alternating between a jig and a dropshot. I figured the jig would get me a big bite, not that day, caught a 12.92 on a dropshot. 6" Roboworm.

I must be doing it wrong I have never caught a fish on Drop Shot. No confidence in it and not sure if I am working it properly. I do not stay with it very long when I do try it.
It is better to keep your mouth shut and remain a thought fool than to open it and remove all doubt. Come on silly fish open your mouth and I will remove all doubt!
