I would start with $100 dollars worth of crankbaits and just hang a right from your house and put in there at hi-way landing, motor under the bridge and start trolling. Head toward Gold Creek somewhere between 1.5 to 2 mph dragging or pushing 6 bandits. A stiff south wind will also speed the learning process. In less than 30 minutes, you will be a master at unhanging, untangling, cussing, praying, tying, cutting, yelling, mumbling, not to mention stress testing all the new equipment. By the way, you will also be $100 poorer. After this, anything that you face in the future will be childs play.

Good luck. The rig is looking good. Being that far forward will help a bunch.
