Just wanted to let you know we made it out Saturday to try out all this new trolling gear and had a blast! Matt and I thought it might take some trial and error but we were onto fish before we got all 4 lines out.
It worked out great - the wind really would have made fishing in our normal spots difficult so we headed to the windswept bays and found the fish stacked up. We already learned to "read" the tattle flags thanks to large schools of white bass.
Only one tangle - much less than we expected and no snags. Only lost one shad rap - something large and toothy attacked the white bass attached to it on the retrieve.
We'll do some more experimenting this week - try some new colors etc. Thanks for all the help.
