How does one fish a steep, weedy dropoff from shore?

RE: How does one fish a steep, weedy dropoff from shore?
Minimize the retrieves through the weeds. 4 suggestions:

1. Bait (leeches, worms, dead minnow) with a good size slip bobber, bead with small diameter hole on line above bobber & a tied on stopper knot set for deep water . Use small diameter dacron and it will cast not too bad (you’ll get the occasional hang up)

2. Top water lures.

3. Dead stick whacky rigged plastic worm.

…………….But still you’ll be fighting all retrieves and any hookup through the weeds.


4. Use a Boat…………… smile

Cheers,
