We tried tight-lining some jigs today, I had 4 rods rigged with 1oz weights and single jigs a couple feet below. It seemed to work ok, we just used the same rod holders on the back of the boat and angled them up a bit. It was tricky to get to the rods on the fish we did hook, I might make some more adequate rod holders soon.

We pulled cranks, hit a few fish on a steep point, so switched to the jig rods and cruised back over the point. We managed to catch a decent smallie and 2 crappie on the jigs, although we lost one at the boat.

We switched back to cranks but didnt have much more luck today. Fish were just not where they have been out on the flats. The few we found were close in to the banks, but it was tricky to pull cranks without constantly banging bottom with shallow spots and worrying about hangups.

We ended up with enough for a family meal, including a fat walleye, and caught fish on jigs, so I consider it a decent day.
