Yes it does and thanks for the details. I assume a "red rock dancer" is your weight..? I shall Google the term.
I use a short piece of hollow core 1/4" lead (vary the length...vary the weight...depends on flow and depth of what you are fishing) w/ a "spinner wire" (used for creating spinning lures (stiff wire w/ eye already formed) crimped HARD on the wire, leaving a 2"-3" tag to "tickle the bottom". Bent slightly (think banana), hanging off a straight-line 3-way swivel connection (I like PLine hdwe). I usually use a much longer (24-36")leader.
Perhaps I need to try shortening mine...I want to catch one like YOURS !!....hehehe.

Bobber-doggin' for steelies....too bad I have daily life responsibilities and such, or I would spend EVERY WAKING HOUR chasing those piscatorial wonders with a spinning rod or flyrod, either one.
Thanks for sharing all pics AND setup !
