Advice on where to drop
Got a cove that Im cutting my teeth on trolling in. Theres a little side cove slam full of brush that produces all the 7-9"ers youd wanna catch.
Well on a recent nightstalk in the main cove at the creek channel, we were pleasantly surprised with several 10-15" fish.
Id love to put some boo buckets in that area. The banks are gradually sloped, going to 30fow in that area. This cove/creek is a couple hundred yards across. There is an old road bed near ( within 100 yds ) of where we night stalked, and the little side cove I like to troll, that comes from 30-33fow to 17fow on top of the road and back off to 30-33fow on the other side (thought it was an old pond dam or something, never looked at the lake map like I shoulda, looked up some old aerial photos here at work and saw the old road running through there). I was thinking of dropping my buckets along the road bed to give brushy cover on one side and a 'drop off' or 'hump' of sorts on the other side. Or should I just drop em along the creek channel and be done with it. Ive got access to lotsa buckets and boo, idk why Im so worried about where I drop these four, but I just think I could utilize that roadbed coming across open water like that to my advantage. I could be crazy. What do you guys think?

I feel your pain. I always agonize on where to drop. My gps track looks like a bowl of spaghetti.

Go for it treed....I always feel a little guilty fishing someones brush pile or condo....I stumble across....but I know others would fish mine if they got the chance.

no worries on anybody else fishing it.....fair game if they find it, it's a public lake. just trying to make the most of what I drop in as far as location preference for the fish

dropped em yesterday in the 'channel' of that cove....not near the road bed since I was being watched lol. No good creek channel in it, theyre in 32fow............went to check 2 smaller boo buckets I dropped a couple weeks ago...marked a few fish on them...didnt have a rod with me. Cant wait for em to get 'right'.

Why did you go out on the water without you got no fishin pole?:eek:
Do like me, drop them every where, me GPS will hold 3000 waypoints, when that's full, we will have some new technology.
