Dumb question -

What is the difference in a drop shot and carolina rig?

I cannot find a straight forward answer on google besides the drop shot being for a more finesse approach.

Drop shot has weight on bottom with hook above, usually directly to line. I have two types of special hooks for this.

C-rig has weight/bead/swivel/leader/hook.

Drop shot:
Tie directly to hook, use tag end to tie to weight. Creates a vertical presentation that keeps your bait a certain distance off the bottom.


Carolina Rig:
Weight goes on line, then bead, then tie to swivel. Next tie leader to swivel and other end to hook. Creates a more horizontal presentation. The bait might be a little up in the water column initially but will slowly sink to the bottom. A great search rig.
