That is the best way if you have the sinker. There seem to be alot of BSB's around so having that setup around is a good thing, specially if your fishing for WSB w/bait, but they hit the iron too.

FOR HOBIE USERS: Just gently remove the hook and grab it by the lip and tow it around, even if the swim bladder is inflated it will eventually deflate as you tow it around to keep the water moving, usually takes only five min and the fish swim back happy.

What ever you do, DON"T POP THE BLADDER, and don't be "that guy" on the pier.
