SF a fishfinder rig is a plastic sleeve with a connecting link. You thread your line from the reel through the plastic sleeve. Tie on a barrel swivel. To the other eye of the swivel tie on a leader of 2"-3" 30lb mono line. Attatch your bait hook to the end of the leader. For glams I like a Gamakatsu Octopus hook size 7/0 or 8/0. Open the connecting link and attatch a bank sinker, what ever weight you need that will keep your line from drifting very far. Thread a nice chunk of purple clam on, cast out. When the bait settlesa to the bottom, take up the slack, loosen the drag on your spool so that the striper can run with the bait on pickup. This will also keep you from losing a rod to an over zealous fish. Pick up the rod, grab the spool and hold it tight, when the line goes tight set the hook. Then with your rod tip high, slowy tighten your drag, so the fish does'nt spool you. Just don't over tighten it or you will break off the fish.

Bent Rods and Screaming Reels!
