Jeremy Rasnick Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Trolled cranks for a couple of hours. Ended up with 2 nice slabs (pictured 14") and two sub legal walleye. Several hookups weren't landed. Lots of fish and bait in the 16-19 range. This is the "roll off" depth right now. This is setting up well for great winter fishing. Fish can go from 25' to soak in the sun at 12' with very little effort. These attached Screen shots are what I usually see before I hook up with a white bass. Im not sure why these didn't cooperate. They may have been shad, but my experience on these type of images is 9 times out of 10 it's white bass. What do you guys think? duckydoty, Royal Blue, Fish24/7 and 3 others 6
Royal Blue Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 What speed are you trolling those cranks at?
Jeremy Rasnick Posted December 2, 2016 Author Posted December 2, 2016 1.2 is my go to. I always to try to troll slower but no luck. 1.5 to 2 was better for summer Royal Blue 1
Paco Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 Nice report Ras...same Flicker that I use...have your bow????
Jeremy Rasnick Posted December 3, 2016 Author Posted December 3, 2016 No bow in the boat. I actually did better on the #5 with a bunch of line out. Something I didn't think would work very well. Wanted to bottom bounce but the marina was closed for thanksgiving so I didn't have bait. I think drifting a lindy rig and crawler or shiner would produce right now
Members fishin_addict Posted December 5, 2016 Members Posted December 5, 2016 Decent chance that your screen shot is showing a crappie schooI..... Jeremy Rasnick 1
dan hufferd Posted December 16, 2016 Posted December 16, 2016 3 way swivel lead and a flat rap works well too.
Jeremy Rasnick Posted December 17, 2016 Author Posted December 17, 2016 I'll have to try that Dan. Always looking for new tactics to try. Looking forward to trying a lindy rig and floating jig head with a minnow too.
