Buyer's Guide: Best Dropshot Baits and Gear!

Today’s Buyer’s Guide is all about dropshotting! The dropshot is a reliable way to catch bass throughout the year. Paired with the right baits, it can produce big bass as well. We’ve selected a handful of baits for this video that work exceptionally well at different times of year and in different conditions. Come along as we dial in the dropshot.

This rig can excel when the water is cold. When nothing else is working the dropshot can keep getting bit. The key is knowing which baits will give you the action you’re looking for, and how to work them. A lot of anglers over-work the dropshot, meaning they shake it way too much. In the cold months in particular, the dropshot is all about a soft touch and subtle presentation. As the water warms in Spring, you can mix up the presentation with more movement and different baits to continue seeing success.

Below you’ll find links to our favorite baits in the order they were discussed in the video. We’ve also included color recommendations, favorite hooks and weights for properly rigging the baits, and some of our favorite rods and reels for fishing this technique. All of the links go directly to TackleWarehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Winter Fishing Tips: Ultra Finesse Baits When Its COLD!!

Is Winter wearing you down? Are you catching nothing but a cold when you go to the lake? A lot of anglers share your struggle and a few even give up and wait for “fishing season” to come back around in Spring. Don’t be those guys! Winter bass fishing can be incredibly rewarding if you know where the fish are and which baits they’re willing to bite in the cold water.

Non-fisherman think we’re crazy when they find out we’re headed to the lake in Winter! They talk about how cold its going to be, how boring, how miserable… but they don’t understand. They have no idea how peaceful it is to be on a giant lake, all alone. There are no wakeboard boats, no jet skis, and if you know where to look, there are a ton of fish to be caught!

Matt recently did a video about using swimbaits to catch BIG fish this time of year. Today we’re talking about how to get consistent bites. We’re not worried about the biggest bass, we’re focused on getting out on the water and having fun catching fish! We have a handful of baits that produce consistently when the weather and the water turn cold.

Below are links to the exact baits discussed in the video. We’ve included our favorite colors, trailers, and heads where applicable. We’ve also included some of our favorite rods and reels for throwing these different presentations. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Buyer's Guide: Best Dropshot Baits and Gear!

Today’s Buyer’s Guide is all about dropshotting! The dropshot is a reliable way to catch bass throughout the year. Paired with the right baits, it can produce big bass as well. We’ve selected a handful of baits for this video that work exceptionally well at different times of year and in different conditions. Come along as we dial in the dropshot.

This rig can excel when the water is cold. When nothing else is working the dropshot can keep getting bit. The key is knowing which baits will give you the action you’re looking for, and how to work them. A lot of anglers over-work the dropshot, meaning they shake it way too much. In the cold months in particular, the dropshot is all about a soft touch and subtle presentation. As the water warms in Spring, you can mix up the presentation with more movement and different baits to continue seeing success.

Below you’ll find links to our favorite baits in the order they were discussed in the video. We’ve also included color recommendations, favorite hooks and weights for properly rigging the baits, and some of our favorite rods and reels for fishing this technique. All of the links go directly to TackleWarehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
