I do it like this- 50 lb lead core to a barrel swivel and 4 feet of 40 lb fouro to a 8/0 or 9/0 live bait hook. anchor above a rip or a boulder field with some water moving over it and start chumming with itsey bitsey pieces of squid, macs, pogies, whiting, or whatever you have for a while, then pay out your large chunk until you feel scup nibbling it- reel in 10 cranks and start yo-yo-ing the chunk like you would if your jigging a parachute jig on wire.. (if your in moving water, it wont be up and down). I shy away from chunking heads with this technique as the heads like to helicopter when you yo-yo.
Plan on non stop action if the fish are there.
