Default Drop shot help

I was wondering what hooks and weights everyone was using. I'm learning the technique this year with some success, but want to try and improve. Any ideas would be great.

Hooks...Gammy #1 or 1/0 dropshot hooks. Weight...1/8 or 3/16 depending on how deep I'm fishing.

2x! That's exactly what I use. I do go up to 1/4oz on rare occasions or 3/8oz when I'm fishing strong current like the Detroit River.

Loving the gammy dop/split shot hot hooks. Very sharp and sticks 'em every time! I like the cylindrical weights so far, they come through most stuff no problem at all.

They've been working well for my short lived drop shot life.
