[ol][li]the distance between bobber and hook depends on where you are fishing and what your hoping to catch. Any where from 3 inches to 5 feet deep is the way I go.[/li][li]Corn is leagle in michigan, so check your state rules reguarding bait,[/li]
[ul][li] Chumming is not lawfull in michigan. [/li][li]the size hook again depends on what you want to catch. but a long shank or eagle claw size number 6 hook will catch just about everything.[/li][li]Just starting out, a can of worms or wax worms will do you good, and when in season crickets are dinomite[/li][/ul][li]I reel in mostly just to keep as much slack line beteen me and the bobber picked up. but I do pull the bobber in about 3 inches at a time with a quick jerk just to give it a little jigging action.[/li][li]To each his own boyz....[/li][/ol]
**** How long do you wait? depends on wind, weather, and if you want to cast in to a different location... you feal for it is as good as any one elses, Just be curtious of your neighboring anglers, if you are near them, try to keep it to a minimum. and if your are one of those people who have to constantly have a moving offering, switch to spinners and other types of crank baits or take up fly fishing.
