thank you marty

Hey Marty,
I just wanted to thank you again. I was in your jersey rigging class and you helped me with ideas on rigging a boston mack. Well let me tell ya it was the sheet running in my spread.
My only mistake was the bait was big and I didnt use piano wire w my stinger i used the 200 lb power pro and got bite off by a hoo. oh well. Do you think that #9 piano wire will affect the swimability of the bait at all.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts

A HOO SHOULD COME BACK AND GET THE LEFT OVER PIECES BRO...... IF YOU WERE TROLLUING THE MACK MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE DROPPED BACK AFTER THE MISS......AND BE VERY PATIENT.....GIVE HIM TIME....HE WILL COME BACK.

yeah i know what your saying. It never popped the bait clip though and i checked on my bait and she was gone all the way up til about a 1/2 inch from the hook.

I am not wahoonbox but i would think that the stinger with the piano wire of #9 or so should be a problem if you have a little extra for the bait to swim.. dont keep it tight across the body on the stinger.. keep it a little loose! it would swim good no problem!
