I don't want this to turn into a one up contest but what is the biggest bass you've caught on a drop shot? Where and what set up? Ex line size and bait. I've caught some 5s doing it with a Roboworm on a 1/0 with 10 P-line Floro.... I also like to use a tungsten finesse jig as a weight some times too.... I would like to see how eveyone else uses it....

I use it nearly every time I fish fork and have caught several over 10lb with the largest at 11.5. I use 12lb invisx with 1/4-1/2 oz tungsten weight depending on the wind conditions. I use hags tornado f5 and LFT hyper sticks mostly.
