Mike I don't know about mooching but back in the early 70's we use to net pogies tie a 8/o hook straight to the line add a 1/2 oz rubber core sinker up the line about 3' and troll padanaram harbor all the time. This was with live bait not dead but there were times that we would run out of live bait and use what ever was left and we did catch bass on the dead ones. We did use herring once in a while but the pogies were easyer to get so thats what we used. Now that I'm getting back into this addiction I will be trying it with herring as now they are the easyer to get. I have never tried to freeze herring but I take it that they don't freeze very well? So salting would be the way to go as this would keep them ferm and solid enought to troll with.
