Great video. Ya I’ve been getting a few walleye, while drop shoting for smallies using flat worms. I’ll give crawlers a try. Cheers.

Awesome! Love when you can get a mix of bronze and gold doing the same thing. But yes, with a nightcrawler on there the walleyes show up to play big time. Thank you!

Either of you guys have go-to plastics for drop shotting walleye? Caught a few here and there fishing for smallmouth but I'd like to target them with plastics to try to weed out some of the smaller fish.

Great video! I’m curious as to when you would use this over using a slip bobber setup? Or are they interchangeable?

@daveengstrom9250 7 ай бұрын

You talk about "mid depth" as 10-20 feet. But for us here on Lake Roosevelt, the depths are down to 150 feet. Will dropshoting work on that? Typically, we need about 1 ounce to hit bottom or the current just wipes it away.

I always have one tied, its a modified drop shot.. instead of weight on the bottom, ive use jig instead... its a 1 - 2 punch, either they like eating from the bottom or 1-2ft up.. the down side is when you get stuck, you loose half of the rig

Brett , what’s your favorite crawfish imitation for drop shot ?

@TargetWalleye 4 ай бұрын

Here’s the different craw baits that I seem to use the most when dropshotting… The first is the 3.5” Craw D’oeuvere by PowerTeam Lures. To be completely honest I have no idea why it works so well because IMO it does not look real and it has hardly any action at all besides a very slow/subtle glide (especially when you nose-hook it). But they eat it, so I keep on using it haha! www.powerteamlures.com/3-5-craw-doeuvre-1/ The second one that I haven’t ever mentioned in public (but you took the time to reach out, so I might as well drop another nugget!) is called the Tackle HD Hi Def Craw…most commonly the smaller 3” size tho I will play around with that BIG 3.75” from time to time. They are pretty dang expensive, but the most realistic craw profile I have ever seen for super clear water and picky fish. I usually save them for tournaments lol. www.tacklewarehouse.com/Tackle_HD_Hi_Def_Craw/descpage-THDC.html Few other options I use regularly on a dropshot… Berkley PowerBait MaxScent Lil Trooper Crawfish Soft Bait: alnk.to/aANsxSz Z-Man TRD CrawZ: alnk.to/eOLE5sP Savage Gear 4D Craw: alnk.to/e76Caei I hope this helps!

Use removable 1/4 oz. split shot weights. They work good. They are CHEAP, pull off easily when they get snagged, which is VERY seldom. They are quick to replace. Using Expensive weights ? Why ???

@TargetWalleye Жыл бұрын

I truly feel that I have even better "feel" of what's going on down there with tungsten thx to it being roughly 1.7x more dense than lead. It's also more compact so it gets down that much faster. And if you tie them on, you just don't ever lose any of them unless you're fishing around lots of rocks, which if it's really snaggy I'll switch to lead. There are times in big wind where I'm using up to a 3/4-oz weight...that's a lot of split-shots lol. Do you NEED tungsten to catch fish? Absolutely not! But it's super fish-sexxy works extremely well.
