I use a triple hook threaded onto a 6/0 (unweighted or minimal weight)
Tie a small piece of kahawai onto the 6/0 hook (just flesh)
Cast out as far as you can. As soon as it hits the water flick the leaver and let it slowly drift back under the yak
I use the triple and 6/0 as i have found I get a better hook up rate than with the bought lures
Sometimes I add a flashing light as below - slide a triple on and add a little weight
Make sure you are fully clothed as they can remove your skin fairly quick
A quick stab between the eyes kills them quick.
