In a tough bite condition like post spawn, Bass ignore most aggressive presentations. The gentler drop shot approach is shown to be most effective here by Al Lindner.

3:10 Really questioning your batting philosophy…
x fast tip or fast tip?
I thought this was some liquid dubstep
I thought this was some liquid dubstep
i just use drop shot rigs with worms
It's very obvious when using drop-shot especially using a light action rod tip, you can feel any little nudge that the fish will do to the lure.
According to another one of his videos he has specified that early post spawn the females go out looking for easy food into slightly deeper areas; while the males stay in shallower areas guarding the eggs. He intercepts the females from in the middle of high point to high point in slightly deeper water.
Hey its spring and Im trying to catch bass I have some plastic worms and some decent lures as well as shrimp and liver as bait what should I do to catch big bass from my local stream or pond or lake?
this guy is a G
@tubefish123 You usually have the rod tighten down to the lead weight, and you either feel the fish bite through the rod (or the rod tip moves), or you can see the line moving if you fish it slack.
how you no its a she
How can you tell when the fish bite your line?
should i slow down AND reduce the size of my bait on a drop shot if its cold?
Lindner's Angling EDGE!!!! Nothing has helped me get better at fishing like "the edge" has!!!
God bless all you guys!
great videos you always impress me keep it up
What an idiot….
@hotdogr88 To clearify, you can catch them on the dropshot in any depth they are in. If they're not there you wont catch em of course LOL. Also they will have to be in the mood to bite, but if they're in shallow water they are almost always biting. Atleast thats what I think. Good luck.
@hotdogr88 You can catch fish with dropshot in any depth. Ive caught fish on it from 0.5-60FT on the dropshot. But if the fish are shallow, Im throwing topwater! Love seeing them smack my bait on top!
waht was the worm that is baitfish colored like blue and silver? sorry if i missed it in the video, that worm looks like it would really work good. great video
WOW, I agree anyone telling Al Lindner how to fish is pretty stuck on themselves. I bet Al is still laughing at that comment
@TwinStatesBassClub You aren't serious are you? You are going to tell a Fishing Hall of Fame angler how to fish a drop-shot rig?
I'm not saying you are a poor angler, I'm sure you know your stuff, but I would just keep my mouth shut when it comes to telling Al Lindner how he should fish.
hey i wanted to ask how do u know when they hit the lure
Will the drop shot work year round ?
Some kids watched cartoons on sundays. I watched Bill Dance, Hank Parker, and In-Fisherman….Thanks for wealth of info to the whole Lindner clan!
Great video. I have used a drop shot with Gulp Alive 3" minnows in 3 feet of water on a small reservoir & caught a lot of bass. Still waiting for a real big bass but who cares, this method is easy and effective.
wow so thats how its like up north? well i live in the metro so its pretty good down here. the bass and walleye will hit like crazy if you're on the spot.
bass starts spawning in jan up north? i thought it was around may?
how can u tell if the bass is a girl or a boy
So…let me get this straight…
The male fish are trying to stop their eggs from being devoured by predators.
The females are exhausted and recuperating after spawning.
And some fat-arsed bozos still think it's a great day out wrenching them from the water.
Sheesh.
As far as the bite, you will usually just feel the rod get heavy all of a sudden where it's been weightless before. The kind of rod isn't that important, spinning or baitcasting work ok, as long as the rod is sensitive enough that you can twitch it and make the lure jiggle just a little bit.
I have used this technique many times and have only caught one bass while my dad has way outfished me over the same structure. what droes the bite feel like and what kind of rod should i use?
well for me the best way is cast and make sure u feel ur weight and worm fallin untill u see ur line go slack
depends on how deep or shallow ur fishing, but the shortest i think u should go is ten inches, and longest is 3 feet
When you are using weight, as in a drop shot rig, cast it out, let it sink to the bottom. start reeling in the slack. while you reel in the slack give it some soft twitches. you will feel when the weight lifts of the bottom and let it drop back down
Haha, nearly all of the underwater action shots and even the texas-rigged worm insert are not with a dropshot rig.
I would have liked to get some tips from Al on how he fishes different types of plastics on the rigs, too.
Good drop shot tips/info

Hey Al.
What color do you
have most success
on when using the
hand pour finesse worm?
Sorry for the late reply.
You can find these products at Gander Mountain, although to be more general you should be able to find them at nearly all major sporting goods stores.
Hope that helps.
Enjoy your successes on the water!
Thanks for the question,

wacky rigged 3-4" senko's or lizards do wonders for spotted bass.
