When fishing the dropshot, working your soft plastic worm or bait along the bottom, line twisting can present a problem. Mustad solved this with its fine wire No-Twist Mini Swivel Rig. Just tie your weight to one end of the swivel with a short mono line, and the other to the main line. The hook should always be with the hook point upwards, optimizing hookups. It leaves the hook and bait free to rotate a complete 360o with no line twisting at all.

Fishing the drop shot rig is an effective way to present your soft plastic lure close to the bottom, without snagging. The fine wire hook offers a delicate presentation of your lure. Fish it with a suspended presentation with a steady motion, or let it bounce off the bottom, leaving as many spin stops you like. Your soft plastic lure will be right in the striking zone. The best knot for tying the hook to the line is the Palomar knot, which will place it at a 90-degree angle from the line.
