Hi !
I used to fish tournaments and drop shot rigs were on the menu.The whole trick is to not overwork the bait, just vibrate the rod tip a little, and GENTLY lift the rod tip to feel any weight change. Light hooksets. I do feel a trick worm could be a bit large for this finese technique, and maybe you might want to try a four to six inch worm in either junebug or motoroil. Both have been very productive for me, in fact between using a drop shot rig, or a Charlie Brewer Spider head jighead with a four to six inch worm won several Buddy Tournaments for my son and I.

Hope this has been helpful for you....GOOD LUCK!!!
