I'm just getting into fishing and have been trying several different drop shot knots and have had difficulty mastering them, but this knot and your video had me instanting tying several perfect drop shot setups right away as I practiced. Thanks for the awesome video describing a simple and effective way to tie an awesome drop shot.
Glad you enjoyed the video, it’s such an easy yet effective knot! If you want to stay updated on how to do more stuff like this, feel free to subscribe🤟🏽
FYI although this knot is easy it compromises line strength to a huge degree. When you are talking about 6-8lb test used in drop shotting this is a massive issue. Palomar with tag end being brought back through top is far superior.
already have caught a 30# Blue Cat off of these (going to try to get a 60#+ next year). th-cam.com/users/postUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 Definitely very strong, and sharp. Additionally, the gap is wide enough to actually hook a fish (not always the case with circle hooks). I purchased the 8/0, but probably should have got the 9/0 (they seem slightly smaller than other 8/0 hooks). Additionally, having the point in-line helps if you drift fish. I have yet to get a serious snag with one of these hooks.
Super job on this video, man. I watched probably 6-7 videos on how to's for this knot, and you're explanation and especially your camera/video work is the best on YT. Period. After watching your vid and trying the knot again on my own.. Nailed it first time. Again... Thanks, and keep up the good work. Super easy knot after seeing what was going on with it and it's easier than the Poly in my opinion.
Short, simple, right to the point with easy visual by use of coloured thread. Thanks for doing up this video. Have always used Palomar to tie dropshot in past, from now on, The HUMBUG!
Yup...This is the knot to use. There are ton of videos showing various ways to tie on a dropshot hook, but this is by far the best way...another advantage is that this knot is extremely easy to undo and re-tie if you want to change the distance to the weight quickly.
Great video and a great knot! I have tried at least 4 variations of a drop-shot knot and this is by far the easiest and the best at keeping the hook away from the line for clean fish takes. Thank you!
The best vid I've seen on this. I watched a half dozen other all saying and showing the same thing, but the visuals and explanation made it click for me
Beautiful starter knot. You could tie it at home before going out , but it looks hard to tie out in the wind with 6# mono. Also... 6# mono doesn't make those nice big support knots on either side of the hook eye. This knot might not be good for walleye, but I'll try it. Thnx,
Just starting to try the Dropshot method … I stumbled across your video, as I didn’t know what knot to use & how to do it … this video makes so much sense. Absolutely brilliant and I will save it for when I go down the riverbank and I can give it a try. Thanks for sharing that young man and all the best and tight lines to you 👍😁🎣
Thank you very much for making this video, I’m fairly new to the world of drop shot, I have caught quite a few fish with this method, but I had my son tie the knots, never bothered to learn the knots as I was stubborn about trying drop shot, but this is a game changer as far as ease, thanks again, and tight lines
Excellent instructional video. I like the fact that you can make the first loop using either end & still leave a very long tag end for your weight if you want to fish it up off bottom by a few feet. I really like the Palomar knot for braid but I think this works better for mono & FC, which is what I generally use for drop-shotting. Plus it's very difficult to tie a Palomar leaving such a long tag end. Can't wait to try it out on the water!
Too many people just don't get it with contrasts between the line, hook & background... You nailed it with this video. Best I've seen for this knot! Kudos. Does it slip with braid? Any idea if break tests have been done to test the breaking % of the knot vs line # test anywhere?

Same here man! Easily one of the best videos for tying this knot

Best tutorial on youtube. I was bracing myself for a lot of fingering action and a lot of playback action. This fella nailed it.
Thanks man. This was the clearest drop shot hook video I was able to find. Didn't go to fast and explained every step in detail. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it👍🏽
Agreed.. 👍
For real.
This just boosted my drop shot confidence 100 fold!
Thanks I’m always looking of new ways of tying hooks and I am love drop shot fishing now I have a new way tying my knots.
Absolutely perfect, just the video I needed as well. Easy to follow, explained well. Earned yourself a subscriber

Great tutorial man! I'm going up north to smallmouth fish I needed to learn this asap! Thanks so much!
If your going up north, you’ll need the dropshot for sure! Glad you enjoyed!
Going to Milacs in Oct...this will come in handy and of course Ned rigs too.
@@timtorkelson7201 lucky…bucket list of mine. Have fun!
Best dropshot knot for tiny hooks. Through the eye one time and the hook stands straight out like it should.
Wow I’ve been at this a long time and that’s the best drop shot knot I’ve seen thanks
Glad you enjoyed! I remember reading your article about how to catch American Shad back when I lived in Cali. Great stuff, helped a ton
@@humbugvideos awesome thanks. I subscribed!
Thanks, very clear and very useful, great 👍
Nice buddy
Great video thanks 😊

Worked wonders ty . Better than when I tried watching pros
Best knot for bent eye, thank you so much 👍
Thank you new subscriber
Very good instructions
Thank you!
That's killer man. Shot the video very well. I sent this to a few buddies as well because it shows my preferred drop shot knot the best.
Thank you for sharing! Glad u enjoyed👍🏽

Glad you enjoyed it! That's why its crucial to know different knots, they all work in different scenarios
My favorite now!
Bravo...I did it first try...great rig
Awesome! Now go test it on some fish 👍🏽
Too many people just don't get it with contrasts between the line, hook & background... You nailed it with this video. Best I've seen for this knot! Kudos.
Does it slip with braid? Any idea if break tests have been done to test the breaking % of the knot vs line # test anywhere?
Appreciate it! Haven't used it with braid, not sure yet on the slip. Lemme know if you try it!
