This could be a saltwater or freshwater trick

Of course it is not new but I figured I would share it with everyone.  This technique was shared in our last magazine but I figured I would post it here for everyone to see.  I used it in the harbor a few times and it is a producer I think well worth a try.

DROPSHOT OVER JIKA RIJS

This is a great way to cover more water in one cast.  it is simple a drop shot set up with the weight being a jika rig underneath.  Set it up however you like.  I like a 5 to 6 inch worm on the jika with a 3 to 4 inch worm on the drop shot.  Or maybe you would like the same size on both hooks.  Of course why not do a drop shot above a creature bait.  By deploying this bait you are able to cover the water in 2 zones and this increases your chances of finding fish faster and more efficiently.  The first time I tried this I was impressed and I can honestly say I will be deploying this more often.

Which or what knots are you using?
Palomar on top and a clinch on the bottom?

You nailed it buddy, right on the head.

This is a great tip.

I do the same in saltwater but with a 3" swimbait at the bottom and a 1.75" grub on top, about 6-7" apart. Technique taken from BH's website: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] (Scroll down to "Double your chances").
