Drop Shotting Casting Distance And Retrieve - Fishing Tackle - Bass Fishing Forums

Drop Shotting Casting Distance And Retrieve - Fishing Tackle - Bass Fishing Forums: "I am new to drop shotting. Most of the lakes I fish, the deepest water is 17 - 18 feet. I have tried drop shotting briefly when conditions were really tough and have landed one small 11" bass. My question is, since I am mostly fishing flat bottoms in the deepest water during tough conditions, how far should I cast out from the boat? How should I retrieve the bait too? "

Rock bass? They were no problem for me | Lansing State Journal | lansingstatejournal.com: " The first perch we brought into the boat was a keeper but the next two were little squirts. Then Jerry Rakoczy set the hook on a fish and pronounced that this was a good one, “if it’s a perch.”

Well, it wasn’t. It was a rock bass. And Rakoczy wasn’t particularly pleased about that development."
