- 1). Spool 6-pound test fishing line on a rod and reel that measures 6 to 7 feet in length.
- 2). Slide a nylon bobber stop onto the end of the fishing line, followed by a plastic bead.
- 3). Slide a slip bobber onto the end of the fishing line, and push it up 2 feet.
- 4). Clamp two split-shot weights on the fishing line 10 inches from the end of it.
- 5). Tie a size 8 or 10 hook onto the end of the line using a Palomar knot.
- 6). Attach pieces of night crawler or worm to the hook. Hook the bait enough times that not more than one-half inch or so hangs off the hook.
- 7). Slide the bobber stop up the fishing line to the proper spot. The length of line between the bobber stop and the hook is the depth below the water's surface the hook and bait will hang. Pull on the two ends of the nylon bobber stop to tighten it.
