Joe...what is technique called yo-yoing that is commonly used in the MA and RI commercial fisheries for large striped bass?

[cowkiller]

It is jigging. You drop a diamong jig or bucktial to the bottom* reel up one crank and lift the rod up high and let the jig drop.it is a lift up and down motion with the rod.
the other meathod is called SQUIDDING * thats when you let the jig to the bottom and reel up 15-30 turns * then put in free spool let it hit the bottom and repeat.

Yo-Yo & Squidding for bass works best in strong current while you use the boat to stem the tide over structure or bait. It even works at anchor in inlets* you drop the jig back a little further at each fall back.

Joe do you used crippled herring or norweigan jigs for cod* I was reading a article on this and it is used a lot in Mass/RI grounds or do use just bait. I was wondering if it all depends on area or condition.
