I use all my worms, creatures and colors....same as my Texas rig. My favorite is Grande Bass Rattlesnakes in pumpkin seed, but they are VERY flimsy. The design that gives them the nice action makes it weak in terms of durability. I almost always loose half a worm on a missed bit, but man do they produce for me!

Hey I use kicker fish high tail hole shot in both the 7" and 4 3/4 ". These baits have chambers in them that trap and hold air and release bubbles and also keep the tails standing up.

I've always had good luck with roboworms Same here. 4.5 Aaron's Magic is the way to go. Double ZZ also makes some really good baits, a lot like Roboworm, and they are out of Azle, which is right in my backyard. Also, I go with the Jackall Crosstail for a smaller profile and the fish just tear it up. That being said, you can literally throw any type of plastic on a dropshot and it'll catch fish.

Like ModGuy said, it all depends on what the fish want. Somedays, I'll throw a 4.5 roboworm and they won't take it, when I'll throw a smaller bait and they'll eat it every cast. If I'm just getting a lot of dinks, I'll upsize to a 6" to try and weed them out. Its more of a trial and error thing for me. Also, color is a big factor for me, more so than on a t-rig. I guess because they have a lot more time to look at it.

I use a lot of different baits for my drop shot. I will use anything from a roboworm to a gary yammamoto shad shape worm. As far as my favorites go, I like the shad shape worm in green pumpkin and a 6 in. robo in x-mas purple weenie and oxblood light red flake.

I have a drop shot bag but my go-to's are a Grande Bass Baby Rattlesnake in Ssabednarg and KVD's dream shot in KVD magic.

I've heard a lot about the KVD dreamshots. What's your take on them sf150skeeter?
