Sold my great trolling rig in 2020 and ended up ordering a new Bass Boat (w/Active Target) this spring. Gonna miss the ability to troll but it was a "Bucket List" decision.
Looking for ideas on getting that notorious limit of 'eyes this year on Erie and looking for some pointers. A couple things I'm considering are:
When the fish are shallow (early summer):
I've typically trolled tail dancers and harnesses with an egg sinker with great success. New technique could be the same worm harness (hand held) using the bow mount, either as an in-line weight or Bottom Bouncer. Wouldn't mind giving @fishingandfarming some business.
When the fish are deeper (late summer):
This was lead core/dipsey time with small boards for me. thinking that using the active target to ID fish, jig with the largest jigging rap you can get. Acme makes a 2.5" Hyper-Rattle that weighs 30 grams that should get down to 45 FOW.
Thoughts/Ideas??
