alot of times lakers relate to deep soft basin bottoms...in those cases we run lead core(where allowed) or steel line with a heavy slip sinker(similar to a sliding mooching wieght again where allowed) to a kelp cutter flasher with a 36 inch leader to a pea type lure. The kelp cutter puffs up bottom sediment and the lure appears to be in the bottom dust. Maybe it appears to be a feeding something in the disturbed bottom.
It our last resort though as its not overly sporting....
