call me crazy but a 1/2 oz jig with a spinner and using cut up pieces of raw chicken has worked wonders for me.

Hey Wharf Rat,

To answer you question. The jig does as well as the shrimp and vice versa.

A few years back I was crappie fishing with a friend on Smith Lake in Alabama. He pulled out some old crappie rigs that I hadn't seen in a while. When I came home I set up a flounder rig using a hooklear like you see below.

I usually use a 1/2 oz jig head on bottom. Use a crimp and glass bead to hold the lear about 12" to 18" above the jig. I then rig a hook and line off of this.

The lear is usally a 5" lear, this keeps the shrimp <U>or whatever</U> off my line. Its worked well over the past years.
