They do fine I trolled some this last spring with Nephew Freddie. He did good as his second best one of of the year 14 1/2 inches. My best was a 10 lbs. goo. (sheephead,Drum). One of the tricks that I have been doing is to bend the head offset to the hook I will give the impression of a injured minnow. This is with the pill heads. I don't know but do think this would work with with the non pill heads as well.
