strip, my technieques are very similar as to what MJ does. I dont get into waters 100 ft., its just not that deep in my "local" fishing spots. Probably another common rig to use is an Aqua-clear rig.It has a high hook and a low hook and a dropper loop for the appropriate sinker. Hooks are commonly dressed in a choice of colors, I personally prefer white/red then dress hook w/ the good ol squid/spearing combo. Put the spearing on first, right thru both eyes, then about a 5/6" piece of squid strip.I usually cut a 1-2" split on the end of the squid strip just for a little bit more of a natural look. Then like MJ said, pending on wind and or current try to drift up [or down] any decent drop-off. Also, try to keep your line as vertical as poss. and give a lift every so often,I usually get them on the lift. A quality fluke[5-6lbs.] will feel like youre lifting a big wet towel off the bottom. My personal record is about 9lbs., that's when you start to call them doormats. Good luck, go get em!
