    Default How many of you Crankbait guys?

    How many pull them with the big motor?? If so do you use a trolling plate like the one below? Maj, EZ and the rest of you got me thinking alot about trying this style of fishing.
    I have read most of the Crankbait 101 thread but I still have questions.

    All I can say is make sure it is all the way up and locked before you take off..

    Exactly what I got man and I can get my 125 Hp motor to run bout 1.5 MPH at Idle. I can thrown out either a bucket or 2 OR a Drift ANCHOR (not wind sock or drift sock, we were all wrong so NEHHH) to adjust my speed even more. AMEN BigBlue, I ruined my first one with it falling down as I was motoring

    Yes they do work, I use a Troll-a-Matic trolling plate on my 115 four stroke Yamaha to pull cranks with, it works good.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.
