If you have the proper rods and reels trolling wire is simple. Spooning with wire is simple. it is also productive and and a good way to land large fish. First you need the proper rods . I like a 9' seeker with a 4-0 penn. Me and a million other guys that is lol. In Raritan Bay 100' of wire with no drail is all you need. I use 12' of 60 lb. mono from the wire to the spoon. Out rodders are a must!They keep them spread and low to the water. I have a hughe selection from Tony Maja spoons to Montauk to Julians. I like white but they all work. There is a great feeling of satisfaction when you master this. When i was young i was lucky to fish on the Janet C with Capt. Coles and i also learned from capt Otto Reut. Hope i spelled his name right. Try it you might like it.
