At the end of the wire you use a 3 way swivel. use 10lb mono on one side hooked to a big weight, upto a pound, and then run about 15 to 20 feet off the last swivel and slow trool a big bucktail or swimmin shad. If you get snagged it will break off the big weight but save the rest of the rig. It'll drag it right on yhe bottom. I used to fish the Chesapeake bay, ocean side of the third island about 30 feet of the west end of that island is a drop off and hole. I used to get my limit of strippers in an hour with 4 guys on the boat.
