I have a follow up question. What size line are you using for the main line and what are you using below the swivel?

Cause: Here is the night fishing light I use. I also have a white one as a backup. As far as what to use. I use 4lb line all the time and one very small hook about a foot or so below a 1/8 pinch weight so the minnow can swim around. Set up in 30 feet of water off a point drop the hook all the way to the bottom and reel up one turn of the handle counting as you reel. When you get a bite repeat the same number of turns. Most of the time fishing right under the light is the best spot. But I will also move the minnow in and out of the dark area. Good luck

Thank you for the reply and information

I use 6 lb line and a #2 hook tied to the end of line and a large split shot just above the hook for weight.
