Take my employee fishing day:

Last night I told my wife I had a lot of minnows left over from fishing with Jerry that day, she said.....Well, take Tim fishing tomorrow!
Tim is my cousin and does kinda work for me.....he is a bit behind times, he thinks a Zebco 202 is pretty much the best thing in rod/reel equipment

We left my place about 8:30 and headed for the lake, was surprised to see so many boats on the lake. We tried a couple different methods but trolling was the ticket, lots of fish were marked and we put enough in the box forTim to have a nice meal.

1/32 oz jig tipped with a minnow, troll .6 to .8. Water temp 60 degrees.

What do the "Gold" Fish, and the "Blue" Fish mean on your graph?

Jerry thinks that the Blue one's are "BlueGills" and the Gold ones are "GoldFish".....:Rofl

You mean they aren't? :scratchhead

Steve, you're really starting to get that trolling down pat. Good looking fish. Seeing how you are NOT a blabber mouth we'll just have to guess where you went.

He had a good teacher.........

The secret you ask?
It's the AWESOME lanyard, woven to attract Crappie where ever he goes...........

Have you pulled the prop? Discarded fishing line gets wrapped around the shaft and can cause all kinds of problems.

That’s hopefully what it was Jerry!

I texted Rich last night, he called me back and told me to pull the prop check for line.....same thing you proposed!

So first thing this morning I did that, was gonna text Rich pictures but I’ll put them here, he’ll see them.

Thanks to you both

Looks like your prop got into some beaver. That's allot of hair.

Maybe you are fishing, but your boat seems to be hunting..........

And this is why he sent me a message!

Ask him again who taught him how to troll?

Troll......the correct way? That began some years ago in Saginaw Bay on a late December day with Rich after walleye, and the lessons continue every time we go.

20+ years ago when I lived in the UP I would slow the outboard motor down and troll the edges of the bluffs with no idea how fast I was going and occasionally catch something. Most of my fishing up there was dragging bottom bouncers however the wind took me. So learning the correct way to troll?......that's Rich.

I'll also add, as I have said before.....I enjoy fishing with different people because I can always learn something every time out from them. We can all learn from each other.....even Superman.

That "Day" was not a lesson on trolling, fishing, strategy, or even intelligent even competence.

It was a crash course in nothing more than "Luck"............

So when I say he had a good teach, it's a reference to the power of Polish Luck....... lol

As for duplication, I have yet to duplicate those results........

Need to get all my "Luck" back from Steve........
