Welcome to Lure Lottery! Every week or so, I will get a parcel from FFS Lures, with a random lure, in a random colour. On the box will be a challenge. I have to complete that challenge using the Lure/tackle provided in the box. This series will test my skills and my ability to think on my feet on the best location to achieve certain tasks.

The SIMPLIEST Dropshot Knot you can know! This is a slow walkthrough guide of how to tie this knot. It's really a must know. I will continue with other quick walkthroughs on tying knots, so if you need help, get in the comment section! Personally I find this dropshot knot very easy, only takes a second on the bank to tie, so don't waste time on the bank and get fishing!
