- - favorite trolling setup (http://www.saltycajun.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18534)

Trolling can get extremely boring and very craftless. However, certain times of year on lake p requirw trolling or you won't catch fish. I generally will pull 2 rattle traps on my outside holders. Let the line out about 3/4 of the spool. use rattle traps on these. In the middle holder I will drag a
plastic with a 1/2 ounce jig head. Try to keep the speed between 2 and 2.5 mph. Fun fir thr first couple but becomes redundant very quick.

I have seen 4 boats trolling north of 2-10 on the same day. One had 6 rods the other 4. Not sure how they had it setup but it sure was an odd thing to see.

Baits to use: 1/4 oz lead head w/ any of the following: sparckle beatle, sand eall Jr, sunomies, power bait green back Shad, any swim bait or just about any plastic you use fishing traditional. Speed: 1.5 to 2.0 mph tatatic: hold one rod while u opperate the trolling motor. 2 rods out the back of the boat. Sit back and relax and catch. On lenth if line out, make a regular cast and then begin to troll. Good luck depth: 2.7 feet to 10 feet.
