Yes, but my biggest concern is why not jig? If you are going to Niagra you are right there. The worm bite is not on yet, they still want the jig and minnow right now. Not saying it won't work, because eventually it will go. You will see pleny of folks on Niagra this weekend and my guess is that nets will be going in the water. If I was doing what you are doing, then fish the deeper water not far from any reef. So, it doesn't just have to be Niagra.
