Just a cotton string and a hook. Anyone else build their noodles this way? I was going to rig some up but I mainly fish in current and thought the bait would not get down far enough

As mentioned above also, our last limb lining trip we went weightless. Two nice big flatheads ate the bream and got released in the grease.
