Drop Shots: #1 for Numbers of Bass in Summer & Fall | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC

Drop Shots: #1 for Numbers of Bass in Summer & Fall | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "Once the heat of summer comes on and bass move to deeper locations, the drop shot rig will likely be your best option for catching numbers of bass. While jigs, Texas rigs, and Carolina rigs often produce larger bass, these rigs will often struggle to keep up with the numbers that a drop shot can catch. And if the fishing turns tough, the drop shot will often save the day with some nice catches while more conventional methods may only produce a few fish all day. Although many of you have already mastered this technique, I'm still surprised by the number of anglers that either refuse to fish with this "sissy technique" and by the anglers that have still never encountered a drop shot rig. Now through November is the perfect time to learn drop shotting on Fork or just about any other lake in the country."
