The drop shot knot is the fishing knot dedicated exclusively to drop shot fishing. The purpose of this knot is to be able to mount a hook directly on the main line terminated by a sinker, pointing upwards.

When it comes to fishing gear, it doesn't need to be very sharp to be effective.

A good spin in Medium Light will therefore do the trick perfectly.
We advise you to accompany this rod with a reel in size 2500, furnished with a light braid as main line, then with a fluorocarconne at the bottom of the line.
