So, I totally get the argument that drop shotting with a swivel eliminates the line twist mess than smaller bass can do to your line or empty retrieves from deep water can do to your line, BUT I SWEAR since adding a swivel to my set up I have literally NOT caught a fish. Not one.... I have a good 24" + of floro above the hook, and I have a good 15 to 20 feet of floro above the swivel....
Anyone else in gin clear water drop shotting for smallies / finicky fish experienced the same thing when adding a swivel to the equation???? Can the swivel, and its a micro swivel, but driving the fish away from the bait???
