Thanks, Jeff
I use 1 sand eel hooked thru the eyes on a 4/0 circle hook. A small split shot weight right at the hook. A 2 to 3' length of fluro and you are good to go. Drift , that is where the tin boat shines because you can go in 6" of water up and over the bars to deeper water. Once over the target zone return up stream and repeat. Sandeels must be fresh as they hold the best on hook. This will also work wonders for fluke too. Just need to use more weight and a fish finder. P.
