    A sabiki rig is all you usually need.
    Can't beat a live 'herring' (spanish sardine) under a float.
    It WILL get eated! :shark

    Give a googan a king, and he can eat for a day. But teach a googan how to kingfish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years

    i'll be honest with you, it's not as fun, but i've caught more kings that way then snobling, and artificials put together
    I figure it this way, if everyone in the world had a lie clock, whose hands moved once every time they lied. You could use any politicians lie clock as a ceiling fan.
