Glad there making changes it's about time. You can't compare trot lines and yoyo's to a rod limit on a boat. When is the last time anybody seen a troller anchored down or tied up to a tree and stayed put all day that's what trot lines and yoyo's do they stay put and wait on the fish to come. Trolling is trolling to the fish not waiting on them. I was upset when Sardis changed from 5 poles to 3 but after thinking on it and going out in the spring and looking at about 300 trollers on a good spring day the crappie need all the help they can get. You will not catch a limit with 3 faster than 5 poles that's a fact and that's the thought process of changing it. Now with that said Iam going cranking for the first time this year this weekend and I will have my wife in the boat and 6 poles is perfect.
