Drop Shot Fishing - Confidential

[@tomktl879]

This IS the best drop shot video on KZbin.

[@jimmycburfield5997]

It is very informative. Really demonstrating how subtle the use of the rod should be. I used this in a Lakeland tarn. Straight into deep water. Too deep to effectively use lures on a retrieve. The techniques on here really helped increase the catch rate on a cooler day.

[@Chrisowen1948Newbury]

I watched this video years ago and just rewatched and it's still the best drop shot video around.

[@Waxwing66]

This is the best drop shot video I've seen. I realised what I was doing wrong on my first attempt (..... everything) and today did much better, connecting with a few perch. It's a really fun method that I can enjoy throughout the winter. Thankyou!

[@tommos16]

What a video for drop shotting! Absolutely brilliant

[@stephen5608]

Amazing video, I've just got into ultralight fishing and this is the best video I've found so far, if I catch a fishing down my local canal next time it will be all thanks to you!

[@Ayresy_83]

Just getting into this after 20 years of carp and course fishing, looks a great craic, thanks for a very informative and interesting video

[@fishypie]

great help mate,iv been fishing for 40 years and just like the look of drop shotting

[@sergejschuurman2633]

Best dropshot vid on the Tube! 👍👍

[@RonvanSchaik]

Thanks for a great video, I'm completely convinced.... now I just have to wait a few months for the ice to break here in Canada. I hope we will see more of these excellent videos.

[@stracks89]

video got reccomended to me by a fellow angler, as i fancy giving drop shotting ago. very informative and excellent video. thank you

[@chrisanddavesguitarjourney1378]

Can i ask what lb flurocarbon Steve is using on his dropshot set-up?

[@nathanielsmyth4052]

neon coloured hooks are killer always hit decent pike surprisingly , mustad have them in decent size

[@EternalAngler]

I never tried wacky rigging a soft plastic like that for a drop shot, wonder if that'll work for bass, great video! Makes me want to get out and perch fish, not having to buy live bait which is so messy is a huge plus!

[@brettsinclair4957]

well described

[@DonnieJon]

2 of my favourite places to go drop shotting there steve on the stainy and the junky :)

[@leechatterton6150]

Top video , top bloke !!!!

[@KarolKrasickiKK]

Hello everyone is using two hooks and lures attached to the same main line legal in the UK ? I have seen in the byelaws the we can have up to three

[@billstanley5317]

I thought there was no fishing allowed within 25 meters of locks - or does it not apply to “roving” lure fisherman. Only ask because I’m thinking of having a go when on a narrow boat hol later in the year

[@jimmycburfield5997]

Very good I feel I learned a lot here.

[@brummieade]

great informative vid matie really enjoyable watch

[@Blastsniper]

Hell of a lure for dropshot: The lunker city hellgie. You'll catch absolutely everything on that.

[@dougreynolds2813]

it would be fun to measure the dinks, and everything else; compete with your buddies, i've got one friend that outfishes me regularly. i'm in Northern Michigan, USA. thanks for the good content.

[@garyshears1947]

Great video! Very informative and helpful.

[@VandrefalkTV]

I looked away for a second, and I swear I thought I heard Karl Pilkington explaining drop-shotting to me. Brilliant.

[@neilhawes7606]

Great skills mate where do you buy your pocket boxes please

[@jamesgillies2897]

hi where can I buy the lures y use please fab video

[@EcogearUK]

Hi James, if you google Ecogear you will find quite a few stockists in the UK.

[@jamesgillies2897]

Many thanks have found cutting down lures and fishing smaller hooks works a treat great advice cheers

What make is your bag?

[@weirdglezga7234]

can u tell me the waist bag type please

[@ivaylodimitrov4592]

Hello,nice video.Can you please tell me if this method works for chub?

[@andrewl9311]

And what pound flurocarbon line you using mate

[@123boat]

Top marks to you and your camera man or woman 👍

[@philiprowe7452]

Steve, great video, what size hook are you using? Keep up the good work 👍

[@msueirro]

Great video, but those 10 cm fish? Around here, Savannah, GA, we call that bait!

[@stuartduke999]

Wow ! That was one of the most clear and helpful tutorials I have seen on here . Are the hooks barbless ? Thank you very much !😉👍🐋🐋

[@TheRadivoje]

those Ecogear pocket packs are great .I caught 7 pounds pollock on the tiny darter yellow color on 1 gr size 12 jighead.I I didnt get much fish with dropshot but im going to try again with much smaller movements and much closer to the bottom.Maybe the best video on dropshot.

[@richrichierich8902]

hi , the lure you refer to as the "aggi" can you tell me what it is and where to get them from exactly please

[@mikeboston421]

just a 'twister tail'

[@bithasthr5461]

what brand reel & braid is that please?!

[@jasonrenshaw9010]

Interesting video and simple look at the gear. One question though, how do you join your braid to the fluorocarbon please?

[@EcogearUK]

Our favourite method is with an improved Albright. It's quite tricky to tie at first but with practise it becomes quite easy. It is very small and very strong.

[@andrewl9311]

Can i use 20lb braid and 15lb flurocarbon mate

[@thecasualfront7432]

Andrew L yeah you could, although that line is prob a bit thick for tiny spinning/drop shot rods, probably best with 10lb braid and say 8lb fluoro, you could still land a big pike on that.

[@andrewl9311]

@@thecasualfront7432 nice one mate thank you

[@BillyNoon]

Whats the little tube shape on your hip Steve ?

[@robfonad1688]

His unhooking mat I think

[@whitetribe6424]

Top advice.

[@davidmiller2388]

Can I ask where do you get the Gamakatsu 2033F hooks from? Struggling to find them!

[@robertb162]

art of fishing have them

[@peteredwards1528]

You don't need a rod and reel to do this style of close quarter fishing, you can do it simply with a 6 - 7 foot fixed line pole or whip with a pole's length of fluorocarbon on and some micro jigs/plastics, it's called dibbling job done. No expensive rod or reel, no braid, just a whip/pole with a length of fluorocarbon and a box of micro jigs/plastics.

[@grahamh1967]

I was thinking the same, whip with small jigs & away you go fishing to hand. A simple way to get the same results and buzz

[@paullindley1955]

Tight gits haha

[@Ul.lure.xenial.84]

great video, really informative. what unhooking mat do you have hanging off you hip bag?

[@grahamcutler3734]

Nice 1 Steve

[@ЗДЕСЬРЫБЫНЕТ]

Nice video!

[@andylitchfield]

I’m a sea fisherman. I like hunting fish for food. Great video of a technique that I previously didn’t understand. Another thing I don’t understand, is why bother catching these tiny fish that you can’t eat, in the first place? It’s not much sport, pulling up a goldfish.

[@ethansmith4693]

what unhooking matt is that

[@grybz]

Reel brand(size,model)?

[@BalkanMTB]

Megabass :)

[@aart8027]

you need to come the us we dropshot huge fish walleyeys and bass huge crapies..you name it

[@chestbrah3200]

Hi Steve, or anybody, could they tell me specifically which brand of japanese rod and reel he is using?

[@aart8027]

Reel is a Megabass gaus 20x

[@banditoo7]

Does this work with trout too? Great videos. Subbed

[@RuachEden]

I've been wondering about that too and I reckon that it will! These lures weigh next to nothing. No reason why they wouldn't work on a fly rod too

[@tombritton1425]

can't find the hooks anywhere!

+Tom Britton try harris sports mail, angling direct, fosters of birmingham, agm fishing and art of fishing

[@davebirkbeck9348]

You need 20 ..1pound fish to make a 20 pound equivalent not a Metre of 10cm fish ,so thats 10 to a metre and they average 3 ounces.

Explain please.

[@cadencefishinguk]

@@peterwalker5433 it's about accumulation of length. Could be a metre long pike, 50 can perch or 10 CMS perch. It's the accumulated length which wins.

[@vudusid9137]

If he is in a match and he catches 11 10cm fish, in an hour. It’s worth more that if someone catches a 1 meter pike. That’s what he is explaining Peter. This guy does plenty of videos where he is catching big fish if that’s what you want Peter. Ok Peter?
