VMC Drop Shot Hooks Where to Buy Them Locally? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

If I remember right I saw them at the Sport Chalet in San Marcos.

I just use a wide gap Gamagatsu hook tied on with a palomar knot. Leave a long tag end to attach a swivel. Loop the rubber band to the swivel and then your sinker to the rubber band if you will be using it around rocky bottoms. If the sinker wedges in the rocks, the band breaks and you only have to attach a new band and sinker. In the bay with its sandy bottom, I use a snap swivel and no rubber band to make quick weight changes to suit the tide flow.
