Tips for trolling artificials?
Hey All,
I'm seeking some advice on trolling. I've been attempting to troll a 1oz kroc off the back of my kayak from a rod mounted in a flushmount behind my seat (vertical orientation). I'm finding that the kroc will start skipping along the surface while underway. It seems like no matter how long I let it sink before getting moving it still reaches the surface. I attempted to use a 4" swimbait and 1/2oz leadhead instead, which seemed to have slightly better results, but not that much improved.
Am I not using enough weight? Not letting out enough line? Incorrect type of lure? Lastly, should I troll in freespool w/clicker or in gear with light drag?
Best regards,
Dave
