ok, before I start going crazy with the stripers i would really like to know the setup that people use and how they fish them.
how do you rig the bunker? do you use a weight?
open spool or light drag?
when you get a bite do u wait for a certain amount of time to set the hook?
how do you keep your bait away from the blues?
appreciate all answers, and does anyone know a bait shop near mamaroneck where they sell live eels? wanted to try them out sometime in the sound (within 40 minute drive)

There are so many ways, answers, and opinions that I don't even know were to start

Boat or Surf? live or dead bunker? Spinning or conventional?

I would suggest doing a search. There is tons of info on bellying, chuncking, live lining ( ells, bunker, shad), hooks sizes and leader and rigging.

There is info info there to keep you busy for weeks with all the post that available.
