I always use my Terrova in shallow water and before the sun comes up. Often I'll use a combination of my big motor with a driftsock and the troller to extend my fishing time. I've found I can fish all day if I use the big motor when going into the wind and switch to the troller while going with it. I have no feedback steering which allows me to steer with the Terrova when using the big motor.
If you have room for Group 31's that would be the ticket. If you had two of them connected positive to positive and negative to negative that would be even better. I don't have the room for this set up unfortunately.:(
I have been reading this whole thread and it has given me the craze to try this. It looks like it will work on several lakes that I fish on the west side of Ol' Muddy here in La. Looks like I will be setting up my boat to try this next summer. I needed to replace the carpet and a few other things this winter anyway. I guess I will be adding a few extra things to my project for next summer. A question I have is, the rods that you use for pulling cranks during the summer. Do you use those same rods when you are trolling jigs in the winter? Do you just change the reels with smaller 6 lb line. Or do you use lighter action jig poles. I have a few jig poles that I could use but I was hoping I would not have to buy poles for crankbaits and poles for jigs too.
luv2, I personally have 8 PST's with the line counter reels dedicated to cranking
Luv2 you can get 4 line counters for $100 and you need to increase your line weight to 10# or more not decrease it. You may be able to get away with the rods you have if the aren't too light weight. This isn't a light weight, danty little technique at all.
If I have to replace any of my reels it will be with the 20DX Okuma, not the 15's.
The longer Pro Series Trollers by BnM (PST) are used by alot of guys to spider rig. So the longer ones (16, 14, 12, etc..) can have a double use if you want them too. I got me some 8s, 12s, and 16s that are going to be strictly used for crankbaits... Just easier that way...

I stopped by Academy and found some bandit 300's on clearance for $1.88 each. I bought 5 salad bar, 4 firetiger, 6 white/charteuse belly, and 3 baby bass. Two of the baby bass had a green belly and one had a white. Has any one else seen that? I guess it was two different batch numbers or something. Do you guys who pull cranks think that any of these are productive colors. They also had Southern Pro 2" grubs 50 pack for 88 cents. Felt like I got lucky. I am starting my collection of cranks for next summer.
Sounds like you found the mother load luvie.
