Rigging Baits This Way Resulted in TONS of Trout!

Drop-shot rigs elevate soft-plastic baits off the bottom, holding them in the strike zone of feeding speckled trout. Capt. Justin Bowles has discovered a unique way of tying them, and it's been paying dividends for him, but never more so than on a trip he and I took to Venice, La., at the mouth of the Mississippi River.
We caught really nice speckled trout almost every cast, and left them biting. Check out the video for all the details!

Been fishing with a knot like that for years only mine has 1 extra step, its like a T-knot so if you happen to break your line on that loop sticking out you can now have 2 seperate lines to retie too instead of redoing your whole rig. I'll be down there catching em like that all next week! If curious about the T knot you can watch me tie one on my channel on my Venice trout slam video. Have a good day!!

Thanks for sharing Todd! I always look forward to your videos. One other approach for this knot is to add a knot on the drop side so that you create a "T" knot; it helps offset the drop line from the main line more. You do this by first tying a multi overhand knot (like the surgeons knot) then do the drop just like Justin did, pulling the drop line through the loop you create. Also, if you are using a small hook/small hook eye, you can run a line first through the eye, then through the loop and then back into the eye and then pull the loop through the hook eye. And on top of that if you want, you can use the drop loop to tie a Palomar knot on the hook.

So what was the floatation used in the bait to keep it floating in the water column ?

The water looks beautiful down there, I could imagine the drought is to blame. My son and I went yesterday morning and weeded through multiple dinkers to end up with 6 keepers. The bite getting hot down here in SETX

Thank you for the video. Been fishing a drop shot for bass, never thought about using it for speckled trout. Is the bait Justin used available to purchase?

I've launched my kayak off of Tidewater road near Yellow Cotton Bay and fished mostly for redfish within a couple of miles. I now have a 3hp electric motor on my kayak and I'm looking to explore. Are there any safe options to launch a kayak and perhaps fish the Venice wagon wheel or a similar area?
