I've got my spyderloks mounted up front ready to troll and all my rods rigged with double minnow rigs....how slow should I troll them? And do y'all troll just open flats and catch fish or do I need to find structure to troll over and make passes back and forth through structure ?
Right now look for transitional areas between deep water and spawning areas. Usually on the deep water side they will be holding waiting to move up. Stump fields a little deeper than spawning territory are also good. Run the baits a little above the structure or weave in and out. Creek mouths are where I would start looking and work my way shallower. From .2-.8, zig-zag and see if the inside(slower deeper) or outside (faster shallower) get bit and adjust accordingly. I would keep it below .5 though
slow or fast anywhere and everywhere :biggrin it depends on the pattern the time of year and what the fish are doing pre spawn spawn and post spawn then you got your summer and fall a lot of it is just knowing what the fish are doing year round I guess learning there habits and why they do what they do is key I mainly single pole fish so maybe someone who spider rigs more than me will chime in as I am still a rookie at it good luck and good fishing to you!!!
