[QUOTE="A.J., post: 885863, member: 561"] Use light line 4, or 6 pound test at the largest. If you don't have any reels with that small of line, just make you a leader 2 or so feet long with the lighter line. Two ways to set it up. I prefer what I call a catfish rig. Put loops in your main line about 18" apart and attach your leadered hooks to that, with a weight on the bottom just big enough to let you cast it a distance. Use either small snelled hooks, or salmon egg hooks. The other way to rig it is to thread a barrel weight on your line, tie on a swivel, then about an 18" leader with a small snelled hook or medium salmon egg hook on the very end. Baits include power baits (use the name brand stuff) in different colors, salmon eggs, corn, or small worms. I've heard of people having good luck with 2"power worms hooked wacky style. ALWAYS fish on bottom. If they're really biting, sometimes you can have luck with small in-line spinner baits. It's a LOT of fun catching them that way. [/QUOTE]
