Thanks for the advice. Yeah, I have trolled around quite a bit have some of the deeper areas marked and even found some humps that look promising. I have never tightlined either pushing or pulling with any significant amount of weight to get down. Only long lined on Monroe with really light jig heads 1/32 to 1/64 because honestly its so easy to do here and most of the lake is 6-8 ft deep with stained/dirty water.

But I live next to a clear lake chain so as you have suggested I need to change my tactics. Been looking at videos online of different terminal rigs. Some guys using three way swivels with leaders and drop weight line as heavy as 1/2 oz. Some guys claim they can just use a larger jig head 1/16th oz and let out a ton of line. I don't know if I like that idea. I have four rod holders off the back of my boat. I also have one of those black widow rod holder bars installed in the front with 4 holders where I guess I could try pushing. I have two 8 ft ultra light rods and two 6 ft ultra light rods. The "deep" holes would be in the mid 20 foot range. Any suggestions about how a rookie like me should proceed with what I have. My rods are all running 4-6 lb suffix moss green mono if I remember right. I could really just use some suggests about terminal rigging and whether I should pull or push. As an avid fisherman I know success is in the details so I don't want to spend my time dredging bottom with too much weight or untangling terminal rigs that I put together wrong.


Thank you for the advice. Much appreciated.
