Here is what I use: Sepps silver/pink dodger (about the size of a 4/0) followed by spinner made up of a #6 red Gamakatsu, 6-7 3mm red flourescent beeds and #0 silver spinner blade. Bait with maggots or anise flavored Spoepeg corn. I tie the spinner on 6 lb test and use a leader length of 14-16". Early in the season this set-up long lines nicely (I think it runs about 10' deep). As summer progresses and the fish hold deeper I start using my downriggers so I can play them on my light action 7' spinning rod.
