[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3806519, member: 5412"] I use swim noodles 2.5' long with a PVC center that contains a piece of rebar inside. The noodle sits flat on the water until a fish hits it, then the rebar slides to the bottom and I get a "tip up" showing a fish is on the line. 16 oz solo cup filled with concrete for a weight and #2 saltwater circle hooks. Lines are set for a maximum depth of 18' because the lakes develop a thermocline of around 18' that contains little oxygen below that. Set them deeper and you will pull up dead fish. Hooks 5' apart for a maximum of three and I set them along the original river channel where intersecting creek channels occur, and flats are nearby. Blue's use the river and creek channels like highways chasing shad that typically move up into the flats at night. Getting jugs between the flats and the channels really works great. Jugs are required to have the fishers name, address and now their personal ODW ID number on the jugs/trotlines/stringers If I remember correctly. I've gone to Amazon, researched "trapper tags" and found where you can get 50 copper tags with your information stamped out and sent to you for very little money.
