Reese also explained that a Carolina rig and a dropshot were both techniques that couldn’t be overlooked when fishing a RoboWorm.
“People get away from the Carolina rig, but it is
such a natural look, just bumpin’ along and floating,
it really can get ‘em,” he said. “I will fish it year
round in current situations.”
When asked about his dropshot presentation,
Reese stated there were many variations,
depending on when and where he was targeting
fish. “If I’m using a dropshot for largemouth in
the Delta or Clear Lake, I am fishing closer to the
bottom (4 inches) using craw colors,” he said. “If
‘m dropshotting for spotted bass in 30 or more
feet, it is an entirely different setup with the
hook at 12 or 18 inches about the weight and
a Robo in Baby Bluegill, Baby Bass or Oxblood
Light.”
Giving a couple of tips for dropshotting,
Reese said, “To reduce line twist, use braid and a fluorocarbon leader. It will save you the time of trailing line behind the boat. Sometimes, it is more about the fall than the shake, experiment with different actions.
