I don't get too hung up on trying to "match the hatch" when drop shotting. If a bass sees something edible and appearing vulnerable and hovering in it's face, it's going to eat it. The trick to drop shotting is finding bait on a good structure. Do that and you're 90% home.

Any 4" worm or shad imitation (i.e.: Berkley Power Minnows) will work. Also, don't over the 3" Sluggos!

If you must have a shad looking worm, the roboworm Hologram shad has been a producer for me..They also have soft shad swimbaits you could ds with...

GYCB Shad Shaped worm, Zoom Fluke, Berkley Gulp! Alive Minnow are a few more.

Lake Fork Live Magic Shad.

I use 4'' roboworms and 3-4'' senkos and stickbaits.  roboworm has a baby bluegill that looks killer in clear water

Roboworm Alive Shad made for dropshotting. The 4" is perfect.

The berkley power minnows realistix in silver flake or white will do your job best.
