Drop Shot Walleye

The Drop Shot Rig has made its way into the walleye scene. This is a finesse technique that lures walleye in with a small profile & slower movements. It can be baited with plastics or live bait which can entice even a negative mood walleye for a nibble. What makes it similar & yet different from the techniques we already use? It’s similar to Jig & Lindy fishing where you use a weighted lure to get to depth close to bottom. The pinch of the bite is almost identical. It’s different because of what you can do with it, a small profile that can be fished shallow & out deep. Where as a jig you would have to upsize the head to 5/16, 3/8, 1/2 oz so the profile grows.. A Lindy rig is quite close with a bottom weight except it has a more free flowing action with a leech swimming on a variety of lead lengths. The Drop Shot stays more stationary & vertical. Where you control your water column depth by adjusting the dropper weight length. The hook stays horizontal & should be checked occasionally depending what style of hook you have chosen. VMC & Gamaktsu both make a spin shot hook that is held by swivels which keeps it horizontal and easy to tie. VMC Octopus Hook with glow resin is what I have chosen. It adds that extra element of colour to catch attention. ➡️At approx 12:00 min Into video I show how to tie the drop shot rig I’m using.
