I use the fish finder rig while drifting in the mouth of the Merrimack River. I use LOTS of weight to get it to the bottom (6 - 8 oz of lead). We have caught many 20 - 26 inch stripers that way (clams for bait)....NO KEEPERS YET!!

I am thinking of trying the high low rig instead and have my fishing partner use the fish finder....

If you need help with the high-low, go to

Good luck
