Thank you Mike. It is good to hear you say " Don't Jake the fish ". This coming from a guy who would start his hook set at the front of the boat, and finish it sitting on the motor is a major improvement. It is good to see/hear you are not all show.

[@hahmmo]

imagine walking down the mall and find Ike talking about dropshot

[@corey6258]

this is awesome i have been looking up drop shotting for a lil while and no one has mentioned any of this , this helps me a ton! thank you

[@nikkygonz]

Great tips, expecially the one on how to setup the fishfinder. .. Everyone always talk about seeing the line, bait and fish but no one says how to setup the unit. .. Thanks for the tip

[@JKDDarthSniper]

I've always appreciated Mike more then most guys on the tour. I am not sure why. Maybe because he reminds me of a younger me. I got his book also. It was a fun read.

[@robertcrawford7673]

Great tips! Little bro has been watching for his Junior Bassmaster tournament! Thanks!

[@brianvihlidal6844]

GREAT video! Thanks to BassResource and Mike for taking the time to put this out there.

[@bassresource]

Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching.

[@bolodougie]

I miss your urban fishing show. These are great tips. I will try them out. I fish a lot of highly pressured ponds/lakes in California. This will hopefully give me an advantage. Thanks Mike.

[@hillclimber3040]

Nice video Mike, thanks for the info!

[@pedrofarias1200]

Marty Lemons You're welcome!

[@old-timeangler5356]

Thanks, Mike

[@casscaldwellfishing]

Great advice!

[@claudesmoot1880]

Mike is the coolest dudes, had the pleasure of meeting him in Nashville years ago 👍. KVD was a dick.

[@titvarmit]

Most appreciated and thank you.

[@bassresource]

Chris M You're welcome!

[@YoutubeBrand]

The difference between being good, and great, is my ability to drop shot!

[@Fugettaboutit]

He's a very good presenter.

[@thelowmein9143]

Can’t be mike, he’s not yelling lol. Kidding, thanks for taking the time sir!

[@YAKMANONT]

sounds good

[@bakdrft2009]

Mike’s layover tips?

[@timwilcox960]

Thanks for the video. There’s one aspect of fishing a drop shot rig that I don’t get and hope that either you - or one of your subscribers who have experience using it - can explain. I thought that the technique is for fishing vertically, either from a boat or a pier or breakwater etc. from dry land. However, many pro anglers suggest that it can be cast out and, not only that, but fished in fairly shallow water. This I don’t understand, because the main line is not going to be perpendicular to the water, it’s going to be at a minimum of 45 degrees - if not more. Consequently, the lure will not be ‘swimming’ anywhere near horizontally in the water column - but either pointing down at a steep angle towards the bottom or upwards at a steep angle towards the surface. This strikes me as being a most unnatural presentation and would not fool a bass or, indeed, any other predatory fish! So, what am I missing? Help please!

[@bassresource]

Watch this video, where that topic is discussed and addressed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYvSgWaKg6-Se5I

[@marlynhill124]

yeah, if your the boater watching the screen that is ok Mike , but when your the non-boater when your in point tournament those boater aren't very sharing the screen.

[@casscaldwellfishing]

Never seen a fishing video with a mall food court as a film location...lol.

[@bassresource]

Actually, it was shot at the convention center during ICAST....not a mall food court. If you watch carefully, you see his wife and kids in the background. It was the only place we could find where we weren't interrupted every 2 minutes.

[@casscaldwellfishing]

Gotcha, thanks for the reply.

[@bufunga]

I want to see what Toyota gave you. What do you drive?

[@A1K3NFISHING]

the hair on that chin... had me distracted the whole time haha

[@hondaman991]

hey Ive been asking around a lot about the drop shot setup and I've been wanting to know if the drop shot can be used with a slip bobber?

[@bassresource]

+joe z I wouldn't recommend it. The whole purpose of the dropshot is to keep the bait near, but not on, the bottom. A bobber, by design, will keep a bait near the surface.

[@fr3aky0u]

right, but if you know the depth couldn't you use a bobber to keep the bait suspended? so it doesn't fall to the bottom?

[@fr3aky0u]

er i guess elaztech would work too, right?

[@hondaman991]

Ohhh those look nice! I didn't know what elaztech was till I researched it, heck yea I think those will work I don't see why they wouldn't. And I have a slip float dropshot setup and it work very nicely on calm days and when the water is not rippled.

[@ladybugattack321]

Came here for cod not fishing

[@RP-ud1ce]

HAHAHAHA

[@WizCudder1]

+Tyrone Fleek hahahahahhahah

[@oldheadfishingfishing8781]

Yoo is that a Rolex cuz

[@dr.michaelr.foreman2170]

Drop shot fishing is my primary method of fishing however, when everyone else is drop shotting around me, they are not catching anything, and are only losing their bait. Me, I will throw my bait out there, let it sit there for a few minutes, and then slowly reel it back in. When I feel a bite, I will stop and let the bait settle back down. When I feel another bite I will slowly reel it in to entice a fish to strike (oh no, I need to attack that food before it escapes). This method works all the time. I usually catch fish when everyone else is not catching anything, all they are doing is giving free food to the fish.

[@bassresource]

That’s a good tip as well, Michael R. Foreman. Thanks for sharing.

[@dr.michaelr.foreman2170]

Thank you. I have seen me be the only one catching fish using this method. It works with everything from worms to swim bait etc. But, if I just throw it out there, and never move my bait. No fish.

[@mmfishing3118]

That surrounding tho

[@rickandalisonm]

folks at home!

[@The72challenger]

Gollum the fisherman...

[@gasmandl]

Electronics should have been tip number one. I depend more on my lowrance more than anything

[@MrA8figureman]

99.9 really!

[@gpena383]

I guess the Wifi is stronger at the mall?

[@bassresource]

Aww, see, you just told the world you didn't read the comments before posting. LOL!

[@gpena383]

BassResource - Bass Fishing Information Sorry maybe your Wifi kicked in after I left the comment. 😂

[@timwood1141]

what about people who dont have a boat like me and fish from the bank

[@tominator028]

Leopold Yeah what if you're 15 can't afford one. We don't even have cars. Not everyone has money scraping off like dead skin.

[@freedomrocker7211]

Mile telling anyone how to set or fight fish....LOLz..

[@nikkygonz]

Great tips, expecially the one on how to setup the fishfinder. .. Everyone always talk about seeing the line, bait and fish but no one says how to setup the unit. .. Thanks for the tip

[@doctorxring]

Thanks for this Mike. I now feel like I know what "drop-shot" is all about. Will be trying it tomorrow !

[@bassresource]

doctorxring You're welcome!

[@hooklinetinker9680]
