I was using a drop shot technique to get the herring down - I normally
don't drop shot a lot preferring more natural techniques with
artificial lures - this live bait thing has been an experience.

I use the drop shot to get a chunk of bait or even a live minnow if I
have one...down to the bottom, but not actually on the bottom...maybe a
foot or less off the bottom. It's a killer for flounder.
They don't have many flounder in Lake Murray.
Where they do or don't have flounder means nothing. If you have the right
boat you can catch them anywhere.

I hear that with a Zimmerman-like flounder boat, you can't miss!

That was 5 yrs ago, today the fish (especially the flounder) bite best
if you use a Parker with an open Flow-Thru Transom.- Hide quoted text -

Hey, don't knock the Parker, Harry has put it's pink slip up for a bet
that he and I have. I have this funny feeling he'll chicken **** his
way out though....

Hey - if it's a race, I'm in. :)
