I have tried ( as yet unsuccessfully ) the dropshot style of fishing for Perch .
I was lucky to be in New York last year and of course no visit to the US of A could be without a trip to a tackle shop or two ! The guys in the shop I visited were really helpful and I came away with drop shot worms and hooks plus a few lessons in what and how to do it . They were really interested in the UK Carp scene as they mostly viewed the Carp as a nuisance fish ( ! ) However one of the guys fly fished for Carp and he was full of praise for them .
Anyway back to the magazines . I found this in a 1965 issue :

Basically drop shotting with a " real " worm . Anyone use this method ?
