Thanks for the help guys!!!! With the slip shot and minnow, I assume you are fishing straight down over the side of the boat??? How much does the brightness of the lights affect things??? The brighter the better??? The more lights the better??? What is the preferred hook style and size for minnows??? Split shot size???Minnows and jigs together make any difference??? Double rig minnows??? I know, I know..... Why is the sky blue and the sun orange??? I'm like a 2 year old asking questions, LOL!!!! If I don't ask, I won't know, right??? Thanks again!!!!
