On your drop shotting episode, what type of hook did you use - a special offset worm hook, or just a straight shank? Thanks.

Thanks for watching Fishing the Midwest, and thanks for the question.
The hook was an off-set Eagle Claw hook designed for drop-shotting. I don't know the model#. If you can find an Eagle Claw catalog, or if you go to their website, I think it is listed.
You want to use a lightweight hook to prevent impairing the action of the plastic. Barry Day, the drop-shot expert on that show, was using a straight shank, very light hook that worked well also.
Hope this helps, please let me know if you have other questions.
Thanks again for watching.
Best Fishes,
