Plum Island

Ok I'm new to the board and I might be in the minority here becasue I fish from a boat. But here is what works for me;
I use a sliding sinker rig which allows the line to run out through it when the fish strikes, I use barrel swivels, about 24" of mono leader and the freshest hearing I can get.
As far as weights go I always follow the tide. When the river is still or slack I use no weight and let the bait drift, when river is running hard I go up in wieght in half oz increments. SOmetimes I use as much as 4oz. what ever it takes to get my bait down,
BUt hey thats what I do.

If I'm not workin Im fishin
