It is all preference and really dependant on the lake/structure you are fishing. What you have to have at Falcon/Amistad differs from what you can get away with using at any of the Metroplex lakes.

To answer your question....I use a G.Loomis DS822c, a Revo Premier spooled with 15lb InvizX, River A Tackles 2/0 Spin N' Rig hook and a 1/4 oz. dropshot weight. Any of the above preferences work to...Sinkey knows powershotting.

yeah why not just use a 10 inch worm or 6 inch senko..... i agree with this worm looking amazing, but while you were waiting for something like this why did you not just use something like a 10 inch worm on a dropshot

That looks like a rattlesnake. Is this really a new bait? If so, what's it called?

When I think of Powershotting, this is what comes to mind!

Does dropshot really only work after marking fish on deep structure or can you have success with it beating the bank as well lets say 2-5ft deep?

***WAIT....I take that back. They don't catch fish at all.....don't buy them because they don't work and you will just be wasting your money!!! crazy cool
