Fishing the whirlpool - MichaelAngelo - 11-02-2012 11:42 AM

Any tips for fishing the whirlpool at this time of year?

How are worms and roe bags usually fished in this water? Slip bobber, bottom bounced?

I've never been before... not sure what to expect.

Well, you can drift bait using a slip bobber to get your bait down close to the bottom. You can also try working a spoon or spinner close to the bottom, close to all the snags!!
