Ok GS here goes 1 Best color is white with pink tails, but lime green, and black are good, 2, 3" to 4" longer ones tend to be a pain to use 3, sting ray style grubs best shrimp style next then curly tailed 4, the power bait scent works good but too much scent brings on the dogs which has been a problem recently 5, hooks I use the silver Mustad's that are very common O'Shaughnessy style in sizes 6/0 to about 9/0 depending on what I'm targetting. If there are alot of haddock I'll go with a smaller hook with bait or teasers. I would bring some leader material at least 40#, large swivels, snaps,hooks for teasers the boat has hooks for bait fishing which also can be used for teasers but they usually don't have a great selection if any on teasers.I usually make a dropper loop above the jigs for my teasers and add a surgical tube on the split ring of the jig, your only allowed two setups on a line but if you add the tube to the jig it only counts as one and you put a teaser above. I also use bucktails as teasers or a baithook. As for the macs they work good for everything but I would stay away from bait if the dogs are bad. The boat has clams and will strip up any macs or whiting caught. Its a long boat ride out and I will try to answer any questions and show how I rig up. I have an extra Jigmaster with no boat rod on it your welcomed to use it if you have a boat rod for it.
