when you take a piece of liver out the cup it usually comes in to pieces with a small strip of liver holding the two together,cut that strip and the one big piece becomes two pieces,take one piece and look at it and you will notice in one spot there are some veins were the liver is tougher,pass your hook through that area then weave the rest on the hook,best reels are spinning reels with 17#test mono. Iuse a half oz. weight and when you cast,don't whip it out,I like to make underhand cast and don't have any trouble,also I like to fish a Carolina rig,liver works good when it's cold, it stays firn,I also prefer to fish it in canals or lakes with little or no current, I have used it in the river and caught but prefer slow tidal current or no current,most important,buy good fresh liver that is solid not mushy.
