Free Rig?

I have seen this rig on video’s but never have fished it yet. I fish Table Rock alot and it is a very rocky lake. I like the looks of this rig but I should get hung alot. Would you use a drop shot weight or another type?

Somebody posted it here last year and I've used it quite a bit...seems to come thru cover as good or better than a traditional Texas rig. I use a 3/16 or 1/4 dipsey weight.

I have been to Table Rock several times and like it a lot.  Certainly understand how the rocks could be a bit snaggy, but that is the nature of the beast with those types of highland reservoirs.  I have actually never this "free rig", but my understanding is that the weight slides freely up and down the line which is why they call it the "free rig", so if your wanting to try that rig I would not recommend a drop shot.  If you add a snap to the drop shot weight you might get the same desired effect.  In my opinion, it would be hard to beat a drop shot, but the free rig might surprise me.
