With the magnet. Do you think it is better to twitch and jig it or use the float? Again yhanks for all who have shared on the thread. I wasn't expecting it to take off like this! This is awesome!

I am not the pro on here, however, I will give my advice.
This is based on bank fishing.
I have had very very little success using a float with the TM. It is difficult to make myself fish it in the manner that is most productive for me because it results in lots of snags and lost jigs and TM's.
I use 2 lb SOS and either 1/16 or 1/32 jig head. Cast out and let it sink. Fumble in the pack for a cigarette with my left hand and finally put one in my mouth. Twitch the TM and the strike usually happens on the fall. If no strike leave the lure on the bottom. Reach in pocket, get lighter and light cigarette.
Twitch TM while slowly retrieving. Repeat, repeat, repeat.
If fish are active I cast and slowly retrieve without twitching (sometimes an occasional twitch).
I actually think the Berkley Gulp hellgramite is as good or better than the TM. I prefer the black with red fleck. Use same equipment and hang on.
Here is the Gulp.
