If your in the river and know what your depth is, try the following, no matter how bad it sounds.... If your in 7' of water, place a float/bobber with a 6-6.5' leader on it. Float the crab just above the bottom and see what happens. I would have never thought I would catch fluke on a bobber, but I cant argue with the old salts and how they do it. I see guys doing this here in Barnegat Bay often with great results. I think it may give the crab a more natural look.

drifting a bait that way adds alot of life to it as it is always dancing on the waves. we used to fish a slip bobber that way with big killies along the jetties up north, was deadly
