Thread: thinking about trolling cranks

Navionics and Lake Master cards will also take your money. They will tell you the water is twenty foot deep, and you find it to be five. Like my dad once told me, When your able to stand on a bridge and throw hundred dollar bills in the lake, only then will you be ready to buy a boat.

I have a plug knocker that's about 40 some years old, and has saved many a crank (single pole casting/trolling) :



.... but, I wouldn't expect it to work with a 2oz trolling weight (torpedo shaped). Now .... were I "Pulling" cranks (no added weights), then it might be effective. But, I'd still probably reel in all the other cranks before trying to free the snagged one.

I like whiskers fish too. I might try trolling crappie jigs on one side of the boat and catfish bait on the other side.

I catch my share of Catfish just using jigs and cranks, casting or trolling !!

That Sexy Shad color is like a catfish magnet. I'm just about ready to quit using it, I've caught one crappie on it and no telling how many catfish.
