Thread: Anybody troll flicker shads?

Hey Tommy, explain how you rotate your rods with the boards on em when you catch a fish on the center rod, etc.

Heres a good video showing how to change a bait on the middle board. The same theory works when a fish is on the line as well.

Thx. Good info

If the center Off Shore gets a fish on it - I will usually drop the "inside" one back and reel the fish in as the inside one drops back. Crappies come to the surface often - allowing you to reel the fish over the inside board. I also use the technique that Romanack explained in the video above.

I saw a video somewhere where they shuffled the rods. They did like you said and let the inside rod out and when it got the the amount of line out to the board to replace the rod with the fish, they moved it to the middle or front position depending which rod caught the fish. If the front rod caught, they would let the middle and the inside rods out and move them forward when the fish cleared, and reset the rod with the fish to the inside position.

Can't find that video now tho.
