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.

I don't do a lot of fluke fishing. I have a few fluke rigs, but very
seldom use them.

Just something about fluke fishing annoys me for some reason. :)


My father in law lived to fish for flounder. He had a unique way of both
cleaning, fileting and cooking them and they were really good eating. He'd
catch a winter's supply during the summer, freeze 'em and, in his words,
"Nuke" 'em (cook them in the microwave).

I am not a big fish eater, but I have to admit, they were good.

I've recently become a fan of Costco's tilapia. That's a pretty good fish
for the price they charge. The little Belarussian kids love it too.
