How do you hook minnows for drop shot.

[Old Ironmaker]

We use a ball of colored wool on a snelled hook shank. cut off the hook, to fish for Alligator Gar in Florida.

[Sinker]

You have to match your hook size, to your bait size. Not hook size to fish size.

 

If your using small minnows, you need a small hook. A big hook will just anchor them.

Now there is an excellent example of logic! Thanks my friend!

Let the fish tell you how they want it as each position of the hook imparts a different action. Lips, tail, back, anus, dead or alive all work. Just depends what the fish want that day.
