I struggle with the dropshot.
Why not fish a drop shot with something like a Ned rig or shaky head worn instead the weight? or a double drop shot with two worms?

The creeks and ponds were stocked with brood size fish but it took a while to get over 10 lbs 1st few years catch 16 inch size and smaller on almost every cast, everybody was throwing a white spinnerbait huge areas covered in flooded forests of timber 20 feet above the final pool level, they cut boat lanes some of it was so thick you could not get a jon boat back in there, all gone now above the water line, and it was a clear stained color we called black water, they had temporary ramps then go back a few weeks later and the old ramps were 3 or 4 feet under water toledo bend was same way in the hay days when my dad fished it, I went there in the 80’s and all the great timber forests were gone above the water line, millions of board feet of lumber who knows where it all goes?

Flat fishing a rapala
Really wow! Don’t have any intentions in do that just want to help others and share my opinions and experiences which are very different being in Texas it seems to each his own, I just share what works and does not work for me, for example I use back winding and not drag, I had no intention of starting a war, I don’t ever fish green pumpkin or senko’s much some people think that’s crazy I guess, I like to hear other points of view for sure, we can all learn new stuff I would hope.
