I just target perch & pickerel so I'll usually punch a minimum of 10 holes & drop the flasher down:
1. to check depth
2. see if there are any fish
If I see anything I'll drop a Fiskas loaded with maggots or mealworms, fish each hole usually no more than 7- 10 minutes and go on to the next if I'm not getting any action. I keep 5 Marmish palm rods with an assortment of Fiskas hooks in the box & change rods out as needed. Santa delivered 35 new Fiskas hooks to top off the collection.
