^^^ This, make sure you use strong nylon type line, I get it at Heath's. Leave plenty of slack, you want it to rest on the bottom. I tie it to my dock. It was broken this year, but I found it about 10 feet from the dock in about 8 feet of water. Hooked it with the boat hook and I was good to go. This is the first time in about 5 years of doing it this way that it wasn't attached to the dock. It works well.
