NEW! Berkley Drip Minnow! Rig It 3 WAYS for BIG BASS

In this Ike in the Shop episode, we’re diving deep into one of the newest players in the minnow bait craze — the Berkley Drip Minnow! This bait is built different, and today I’m showing you exactly why — from the design to the action, and three unique ways to rig it that will help you catch more fish.

This isn’t just another soft plastic — the Drip Minnow features:
• A flat chin that controls movement
• A bulbous, tapered body for horizontal balance
• A “drip” tail that never stops quivering — even when you’re not moving it!

In this video, I break down:
Why this bait was made
The three sizes (3”, 4”, 5”) and when to use each
3 rigging styles that unlock the bait’s full potential:
• Drop Shot (flat-chin nose-hooked for action & balance)
• Jig Head (rolling, horizontal stability for bank & FFS)
• Hover/Mid-Strolling (keel-style rigging for insane tail movement)

This bait has already proven itself in tournaments, and I’m giving you everything you need to match the hatch, stay horizontal, and trigger those reaction bites.

Even without electronics, the Drip Minnow on a jig head or drop shot is just as deadly.
If you’re into finesse bass fishing, soft plastic lures, or want to stay on top of 2025’s best bass fishing techniques, this is a must-watch.Subscribe to the channel if you’re not already, and tag a buddy who needs to see the Drip Minnow in action.

Never give up.
