I caught several smallmouth bass at Lake Erie using this method.I fished it in 15’ of water on a drop off and caught 5.63 and a 4.25 on this rig on a 3/16 ounce ned head.

I like the way it falls, will definitely try this. With flat worms hard to come by right now, gonna try that zone finesse slammer

I like try flat worm since the MLF/FLW tournament everyone using the cannot find them anywhere

[@MaximilianTheBassFisherman]

I’ll try it if I can find a pack of flatworms for less than $20😂😂
