went up to NH about 5 years ago in the Spring, thinking about going up in a few weeks. Any help on rigging , tackle, helpful hints would be appreciated. I know members go up there consistently. Do they jig for the pollock ? Is it old school Viking jigs yo yo'ed? What is the rigging set up bait fishing this time of year, hi low w 3/0 ? Just trying to stack the deck in my favor.

If they're targeting haddock, 50lb Hi-Lo rigs, 5/0 hooks, 16oz. For pollack, 12-16 oz viking or Lav jig with teaser fly 18-24" above jig. You can buy flies there, $2-3 each, you don't lose much tackle up there. You can buy jigs there too.

I'd bring about 4 jigs (different sizes or types) a few different color flies, a handful of hooks and a couple of sinkers. If you lose rigs, they'll tie you new ones and give you hooks & sinkers.
