If you are struggling to get bites right now, your drop shot setup might be the problem. In this video, I’m sharing 3 specific adjustments you need to make to catch more bass in cold water, including a unique rigging modification that I’ve almost never seen another angler use.
Most people fish the drop shot the exact same way, but when the water temps drop and the fishing gets tough, standard rigging just doesn't cut it. I’m going to show you exactly how to tweak your presentation to trigger reaction strikes from lethargic bass, and break down the "secret" rig that has been a total game-changer for my winter fishing.
