Not in any particular order

Roboworm 4 1/2 or 6 in. (Regular straight tail, not fat)

Strike king kvd dream shot (standard not magnum)

Roboworm alive shad or missle baits drop craw. These are really small baits but can produce good size fish.

Jackall flick shake is another great option.

Kvd dreamshot

molix sator worm

Biospawn plasma tail.

Keitech impact fat or slim

All with the smallest hook you are comfortable using.

If you fish up north where the gobies swim throw a Erie poorboy darter on a drop shot

Roboworm Straight Tail Worm - nose hooked
Strike King Dream Shot - nose hooked
Yamamoto Senko - wacky-rigged

*I like to start with the 4.5" Robo, 4" Dream Shot and 4" Senko. I'll throw their bigger siblings if needed. ;)

Roboworms, for me, in the 4.5" length, almost any color but I like Aaron's Magic as good as any. This is my go to bait for drop shotting.

But, if bass are feeding aggressively on shad, Keitech's Shad Impact in the 4" is a magnet and seems to attract larger bass.

I pour my own. Very similar to a shad shape worm. I've caught more fish with this bait and technique than pretty much all others combined lol.
