Honestly it's about convenience for me. I could come up with a lot of useless ideas but when I'm flipping a drop shot around structure and grass it's just really hard with a long leader.  For that reason I shorten the leader length.  It seems like the best length is about 8-14" depending on the scenario. That being shorter for tighter more accurate casting and longer when it doest matter as much or fishing vertical or fishing it in a open water situation.

Those spinning rods go fast man!!!! They should be back in first of the year but I'll ask and confirm.

when you say fish behavior and environment. Can you give me a few examples of what you're looking for? For the most part every live session and most all of the exclusive content has been centered around the environment and behavior of bass. BUT I understand there may be something specifically you're looking for.

I’ve seen these before but never used them. I need to give that a try!!! Thanks for sharing those. Would you be willing to post a short video in the community tab on how you use them?

Can you tell me more about the conditions. Time of year, your set up where the fish are etc. give me some more information about it

I use tungsten because I get them free 🤣. There’s literally zero advantage of one vs the other. Especially on a drop shot. I’d use what you have available.

We tend to overcomplicate the simple stuff and disregard the most important facts in bass fishing

I haven’t used it yet. I’ve been just using my Ned-meki to do the same thing. I use the same signature series rod for all my finesse fishing.

Which Crankbait was it? Did you eat that fish?
