I like to run a whiskey line, which fishes a lot like a meat line but with modern gear. Usually a 3 - 4 oz. banana sinker with terminal gear behind. Last year, I was out with buddies on a boat and one of the downrigger lines broke, so I put out the whiskey line and caught a 10lb. chinook. I probably wasn't deeper than 10 - 15 feet below the surface! What a hoot!
