Hi Double Eagle. The post from GLC has some great photo's - I rig mine like the photo's from kingblazer84. Starting from the hook:
Use a single 5/0 Mustad 95170-ss hook. Crimp the hook to a fairly large barrel swivel. Tie a 4ft leader of a stiff 50# leader to the other end of the barrel swivel. Most Flourocarbon lines are stiff. Slide a mylar skirt down the leader to the barrel swivel. Slide a gum-puckey down next. Slide the hoochy of choice down. Make sure that the joint of where the hook & swivel meet is aligned with where the hoochy body changes from solid to tassels. Some plastic beads between the gum puckey & mylar squirt may be needed to achieve this alignment. when ready to fish, trim the leader as needed so that the length of your "tail" (bend of the hook to the knot to the Flasher) is 4 times the blade length, which will usually be 44". Tie the leader directly to the swivel on the large end of the Flasher. Put the gear in the release clip & check the action. The Flasher should rotate once a second or a little faster. The hoochy should roll/flop around 3-6" or so.
Note; this is the combo I always use & it has treated me well since 1986. There are other ways to achieve a similar action such as a shorter lighter leader such as 30# & using twin mooching hooks instead of the single Siwash hook.
Here is why I like my combo better:
When the bite is on, you want your gear in the water as much as possible. Single Siwash is way quicker to remove from fish & doesn't tangle in the net as easily.
Heavy leader doesn't get dinged requiring a gear change.
No need to net small fish - just grab the leader, put pliers on the hook shaft, a single twist & they are on their way. I have no problem treating 10# fish in this manner.
This rig can be fished at the same speed (faster) as a plug. I asked a commercial troller why he trolled so fast (4-5 mph) when sport fishing & his answer was "I kinda like eating fish"
As for hoochie's, most commonly used is the Octopus style (Golden Bait calls these OG), good for when herring or similar fish are the feed. Next common are needle fish hooch's good for when (guess what) needle fish are the feed. Golden bail calls these "NG". Least common are the squid hoochie's "KL" For squid hoochie's Yozuri hoochie's are probably better that the Golden Bait squid pattern. The hoochie's are known as "Tofino Dog Turd's".
For color, my 2 favorite in both OG & NG styles are color's 142R (green) & 161R. The turd;s are Yozuri J85. Realize that I do not fish in your area, so local color recommendations should trump mine.
For Flashers, assume that the Flasher's sight attraction is that of a feeding Salmon. I like something in UV purple or UV green. Glow is OK.
Spoons are much more straight forward' you don't need a leader or swivel. Like a flasher/hoochy, speed is not as critical as with a plug.
