Today’s Buyers Guide is all about dropshotting for bass! Dropshot fishing is a core technique that every serious angler needs to master. Today we’re exploring how different worms create different actions to help you catch fish in varying conditions. We’re also exploring rods and terminal tackle that shine with this technique.

Dropshot fishing is very simple. Suspend a worm (or other plastic) above your weight and shake it to draw fish in. But that’s just the beginning of this giant category! There are different worm shapes and styles, different hook shapes and wire sizes, and that’s before we get into the rods and equipment. Today the guys are breaking down their favorite baits for different situations and explaining how each one should be rigged.

Below you’ll find links to the baits, terminal tackle, and rods we showed throughout the video. We’ve listed them in the order they appeared and included favorite sizes and colors for each. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each.
