So this past year I started trying dropshot for the first time. It’s such a great technique, I’ll say that when no one else was catching fish I was crushing them with the dropshot. This technique is and excellent presentation that I will be keeping in the toolbox. Very easy to learn as well. Lately I’ve been catching tons of bass from shore with a dropshot
Nick, just wanted to thank you for this exceptional video. It was just packed with useful info. I just got back from fishing around North Bay, Ontario, and the fishing was incredibly tough. The drop shot was key for me, keeping it up off the silty bottom. Thanks again for your content.
@@moseskongi4746 there are other options. Palomar is the easiest and extremely effective, thus why I pushed it in this video. Regular uni knot would be very ineffective.
Nice tip with the hair tie to stow the weight... mine's always dangling in the bottom of the boat. Love drop-shotting - been pounding the smallies with gulp on down imaging
Great video on a great rig. Love a Palomar knot. I use it in every case I can due to its line strength. I'm rigging up a couple of rods right now for my next walleye run. Thanks!
@@NickLindner Hi Nick...How are you related to Al and Ron? I got to know Ron and his wonderful wife, and family, during the years they wintered in Naples, FL during the 1990s. At the time, I was running offshore charters off the Marco Island/Naples coasts. Ron fell in love with slow drift jigging with the Crippled Herring (CH), a metal jig that I created in the early 1980s. Prior to that, Al discovered the Crippled Herring while passing by a demo of the CH in the "Hog Tank" at a Detroit outdoor show. That led to the explosion of my manufacturing business because of Al's generous media support. Eventually, Rapala founder Ron Weber joined Ron L. because of his drift jigging enthusiasm. It was my second metal jig, the Kandlefish, that I subsequently created for Ron Weber. It has emerged as the most effective salmon jig presently on the Pacific market. My summers are now spent on a salmon research vessel, working for the WDFW (WA State Dept of Fish & Wildlife). In closing, I consider these two Rons as special friends and was deeply saddened when they passed away. Keep up your fantastic work, Nick!
@@NickLindnerI love the VMC Spin shot hooks too. And I love the eye candy baits on my drop shot, they float and stay perpendicular. They are also GREAT on ned rigs
Nice work! I just switched my kid's (ages 6, 4, 2) rods to this setup instead of a slip bob now that we're deeper. My son and daughter caught one on the first cast then we didn't have a bite. It was a good time though! 9:26
Nick: Your video's are excellent and very detailed. IF I ever get the chance to fish with you, I WOULD! Thank you for all you hard work and dedication to this channel. From Indiana
First-time viewer. Just want to say great video. You go into some great detail and how to. Thanks for all the info, I left smarter than when I started. 👍
Dropshot is the most efficient tactic out there for walleyes, but people would rather focus on the fact that the person teaching the tactic uses modern electronics lol. Thanks for watching Mike.
Good Video. Now, the hook knot. I use a double uni to get the hook to sit out straight. You put your hook on, do a simple loop then thread the hook thru the loop 6-8 times, wet and pull the main line / tag end to set the hook straight out to the side. Easy Peasy. The Palomar knot is not the right knot choice for a drop shot rig. Interesting how you got it to work for you. ;)
Fantastic video Nick. This is a fabulous learning opportunity. I'm planning to head out on my lake (Oneida Lake) in Syracuse to tune this tactic in. Thanks. Keep this up !. We very much appreciate your knowledge.
My brother and i tried dropshot for the first time last summer. We were fishing a very clear northern Minnesota lake and both limited out. Now we always have a rod rigged up with dropshot.
Loved this video!!! Not many walleye in my area, but a ton of Saugeye and I think they'll eat this presentation same sa a walleye, eh? Thanks again for this video!!
It actually didn't pan out but that is how it goes sometimes. I caught some river walleyes the day prior and they just weren't there the next day when I gave the drop shot a try. I liked the way it presented the bait... always nose into the current, looked very natural. Will try it again when the water clears up some... water clarity wasn't the best for drop shot. Thanks for the info and the tips! Excellent videos, man!@@NickLindner
DUDE! Last Sunday, as a heavy rain storm moved in... the drop shot was KILLLLLER on the walleyes in the Susquehanna River, PA!!! I appreciate the tip and I must attest, it worked GREAT! I was using very small soft plastics and I never caught 6 in one day until last week. I was screaming like Mike Iaconelli. Thank you and Merry Christmas!!!@@NickLindner
a good worm keeper is to take a paper puncher to a soft drink cover put bait on your hook than place the plastic punch on the hook keeps your bait longer
Aaron is the dropshotting GOAT. One of my heroes when I was a kid. The knot he ties is tougher to learn than a Palomar knot though. Your average angler doesn't know much beyond a standard fisherman's knot. If they are going to learn a second, I think Palomar is the best option.
@@NickLindnerpaternoster rig, you can fish lures and worms and keep it above their heads when they sit on the bottom. It's very effective. Give it a go
Probably already mentionsed but there is 100% other knots you can use. There is one that works really well. Palomar is a good one but if you find that it is not sitting as straight as you would like look up drop shot knots. As far as what you said about getting lots of smaller ones on this set up I think worms in general get all fish including lots of smaller ones.
For me, crawlers seem to be great when I'm just trying to get a bite. Leeches are nice because they are easier to deal with, more durable and less of a mess. I like to have both on-hand, because sometimes one will shine over the other.
I was watching a bass fishing video. And the guy was 'fizzing' the fish to get rid of extra air in swim bladder. They were in 25 ft of water. Wouldn't you have to do the same for a walleye outta 30 ft of water?
I tie my dropper weight using a lighter line off the tied hook so I can then break that off and at least bring the hook home after a snag. And less to tie to get back in the water
Are walleye spooked by the vertical line? Wouldn't dropper loops be preferred to get the hook away from the leader? (Still can use palomars to tie-on...)
You are probably familiar with this, but I just found spoon plugging. Without the lures, we had success our first weekend with 3-3lbrs and a 5 (Bass). We are hooked!
How hard do you think it is on the fish catching them in 30 feet bringing them up i caught a 28 3/4 inch walleye this summer in 22 feet played the fish the whole why to the boat then experience it got its eyes blown out i felt very terrible about the outcome of the situation 😢
Drop shotting is fun been doing it for 40 years it catches everything. When I catch them at 30' they go in the well, to eat.I'd be worried about the air bladder at those depths.
Nick, I was just watching your dropshot video. I was wondering if you could tell me what the round instrument is on your console beneath your large graph. Is it a Hawkeye depth sounder? If so, are you satisfied with how it operates (real-time data about depth changes, etc.)? Thanks!
Hey Michael. What you’re seeing is probably just a standard stock gauge for something on the boat. I’d love to have one of those devices to read deeper water temps, but I don’t have one. I’ve heard they’re great.
@NickLindner I had looked into a less expensive device (compared to a flasher that can be used on open water, but is somewhat costly) for measuring real-time depth changes. I'm kind of a Buck Perry disciple and like to be able to precisely determine break lines. Anyway, since I wasn't able to find anybody who was able to provide me with a "performance review" of such devices, I bit the bullet and added a Vexilar Edge to my boat. The Edge has a 10° cone angle for determining more precise/real time depth changes as well as 2D sonar (40° and/or 10°). Thanks for your response.
Great job, sir. However, I do have to say that there is a MUCH better knot for this than the Palomar. Called simply the Drop Shot Knot. Many vids on it.
Honestly, it can depend on the depth you’re fishing, how high the walleyes are off the bottom, etc. but as a general rule of thumb, I’m usually around 1.5 feet.
Если снимать камерой с более широкоугольной линзой и ближе к рыбе, то судаки будут ростом с вас ...😂☝️🤭. Попробуйте и Вы станете недосягаемым по вылову экстремально -огромных судаков 👍‼️
They have different line and weight configurations. Lindy rig allows the bait more freedom to swim around. Dropshot is more rigid, but also more precise
I agree in many cases. In retrospect, the footage on my camera turned out a lot better than I expected. It should have been pretty easy for folks to see/understand
Many fishing video don’t show the set up (leader, hook and etc). Here is one very good example and informative
Thanks man. Glad you enjoyed it.
All was good but didn't mention it's the dropshot sinker at the very bottom of the line or up?I use both ways hook then sinker or sinkers then hook
Keep up the pro tips. I grew up watch everything your family has done. Always love the info.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching
Great video! The YT fishing community needed another educator. And you might be the best.

Thanks for the vid! what kind of scent do you like to go with for walleye?
I’m usually doing scent-less, but procure has a lot of good stuff.
I enjoy your show very very well . I have a Garmin 9’’ with GPS . How mush is live scope
Lots of options, so tough to tell you exact price. Buying used is actually a great option for the $$
This was put together very well and I got some good tips from you. I subbed.
Much appreciated. Glad I could help out!
@@NickLindner Brother that hair tie thing was nifty. I dug through my wifes hair stuff and I grabbed a blue one and a white one hahaha.
Awesome video - when do walleyes congregate here and what are other seasonal fish you can find here ? Looks like there would be bass and pike / Muskie
There are all kinds of species. This time of year, weed lines can be excellent.
Great video with spot on advise, I use this method in the UK for Zander and perch. There's only one other rig that works better.

Nice clear video, Nick, thanks! Where are you fishing for walleye btw? And what time of year was this made? Thanks so much!
This video was made mid summer in central mn 👍
like the way you do with the dropshot weight
Thanks!
Hi Nick, so my question is why would I choose drop shot vs your grandpas Lindy rig method
It's more precise and also easier to cast. It's just a different presentation for a different situation
Great video Nick! Love your content! Is their a time when you would use crawlers over leaches or vice versa?
For me, crawlers seem to be great when I'm just trying to get a bite. Leeches are nice because they are easier to deal with, more durable and less of a mess. I like to have both on-hand, because sometimes one will shine over the other.
Mabye it was in the comments, do you tie your leader to braid with barrel swivel or direct tie. This is Doug. Thx for the great videos.
Hey Doug. I’m not sure if I mentioned it anywhere! I connect the two lines with a uni to uni knot typically.
I was watching a bass fishing video. And the guy was 'fizzing' the fish to get rid of extra air in swim bladder. They were in 25 ft of water. Wouldn't you have to do the same for a walleye outta 30 ft of water?
I’m not an expert on that. Haven’t done it much. Pulling them out of deep water can certainly be an issue. It depends on the conditions ultimately
I tie my dropper weight using a lighter line off the tied hook so I can then break that off and at least bring the hook home after a snag. And less to tie to get back in the water
That makes sense. Do you do anything to make sure your hook is always oriented upwards?
When I'm in snaggy spots I use a split shot for my dropper weight. Very quick re-rigging.
Awesome video. I’ll try that out this summer on the mighty Wabigoon.
BTW, what set are you using for your live scope?
Let me know how it goes!
Like the drop shot , I only have depth finder , what average depth would be good ? Thanks !
Shallower in spring, then deeper as the season goes on.
Thanks for the great video!
Thanks for watching michael
For drop shot fishing, when to use nightcrawler or soft plastic as bait?
Usually nightcrawlers when the fish are more finicky and/or I know I’m dealing with smaller fish. Plastics generally catch bigger fish for me.
Are walleye spooked by the vertical line? Wouldn't dropper loops be preferred to get the hook away from the leader? (Still can use palomars to tie-on...)
I haven’t found fish are afraid of the vertical line
Great video 😊
I appreciate it, Lance
cool tips on the knot!
Thanks Nicholas
Great video, thanks!
Thanks Kevin
Should be good for Saugeye? I've caught a few on spoons but I want to clean some.
Should be excellent

Would a 3-way swivel work in place of that knot?
Not for this presentation, no.
Can I use a bait caster rod and reel while using a drop shot?
Could, but I wouldn't

Honestly, it depends on a lot of factors. But 30 feet is right on the edge of the danger zone for deepwater walleye fishing.
Can you fish a drop shot effectively from the bank? It doesn’t seem to me that the bait would stand up well.
It’s great from shore because you can cast it really far
Thanks so much , live scan is so darn expense
It really is
Whats your favortie walleye method on ice ,
Honestly, a spoon is always a go-to. I love to get them on a rattle bait when I can though.
@@NickLindner totally agree
Drop shotting is fun been doing it for 40 years it catches everything. When I catch them at 30' they go in the well, to eat.I'd be worried about the air bladder at those depths.
100% for sure. That's not a great depth for releasing fish

Great job, sir. However, I do have to say that there is a MUCH better knot for this than the Palomar. Called simply the Drop Shot Knot. Many vids on it.

Yeah Buddy!!!
🙋♂️
Can I use this way to fish from shore as I have no boat
100%. Dropshots are great shore baits because they are super easy to cast.
What reel do you use? The link doesn’t work. Are there more than one reel you’d recommend?
I've had luck with the Daiwa Fuego and Ballistic reels.
How much line do you want between the hook and the weight?
Honestly, it can depend on the depth you’re fishing, how high the walleyes are off the bottom, etc. but as a general rule of thumb, I’m usually around 1.5 feet.
Good job

Can I run two hooks on a drop shot
That’s a great option if it’s legal in your state. It isn’t in mine.
Are u anchored or drifting?
Usually driving around with trolling motor
How far is the hook from the drop shot?
Anywhere from 1 to 2.5 feet for me. I like 1.5 feet most the time.
