well this is my first post.

i in Iuka, MS live about 10 minutes from Pickwick lake.

i bought a new st croix mojo bass M/XF rod last week to be used as a drop shot rig.

took it out last night and on the first cast i caught a small LM. caught a few more but the bite was SLOW and we could not seem to find many large schools of fish.

i think that i am really going to like this drop shot rig.

my "go to" setup is a strikeking ragecraw on a spot remover jig but i am trying to learn new techniques.

First, welcome! Second, congrats on getting bass on a new technique. Third, be warned that drop shotting is as addictive as it is effective.

ALLLLLLLRIGHT !!!!

Congrats, hope you enjoy fishing the drop shot rig, keep working at it and you will find it to be just as effective around docks and other areas as well.
Fishing is my idea of a good lip piercing!

I have also found that when it comes to friends, a good friend will come and bail you out of jail, but best friends will be right there beside you saying d**n that was fun !!!

Outstanding! Congrats.

The drop shot is a fun rig to use.

Welcome to the Forum.

Since you are in Mississippi please wear purple and gold when fishing. It will bring you good luck.
Ignorance can be corrected. Stupid lasts a lifetime.
