I'm starting to learn the fine art of drop shot fishing. So far I've used 4" Zoom worms nose hooked, and Erie Darters, also nose hooked. I've caught several decent fish using these baits. Any other baits to recomend? Anyone ever whacky rig a small senko or similar bait? Seems to me that a 3 or 4" senko might entice a fish into biting.

Smallies sure... but over on this side of the state it's mostly largemouth...

So, has anyone tried a whacky rig senko?

They have such goby baits at Gander Mountain.

Ive done well with Gulp 3" leach and any 4" to 6" straight worm and though ive never tried it I know many use wacky senkos
