Nothing fancy. You can buy them or make them. I prefer to tie my own. This time of year my favorite blade is a silver with emerald fleck, colorado about the size of a dime (I think its a #5). I tie a long leader, around 5 to 6 feet and I use 3 small red hooks. Ive started going a little larger on the bottom hook. I use a swivel with a 3 or 4 oz (yes 4 ounces) egg sinker above the swivel. I know I am fishing directly below the boat and on the bottom or in the target zone. If you use a line counter, you know the exact depth you are fishing and you can fish the downwind side of the drift with no problem with the heavy weight. I use a stoudt 10 to 12 foot rod. Go a little soft on the drag. The big ones will pull off of the little hooks and its straight up from the bottom. Good luck.
