solopaddler Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Interesting...I noticed the rod in the left stern holder is angled inwards. Is that common practice? I'm assuming you're running a short lead on that rod right in the boats propwash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Mike...the one shot shows the rod in it. We were trolling three rods. One each side and one down the middle..just off the edge of the wash. Distance back/down varied as the day went on. Only had a couple instances of tangling as a couple baits didn't run true on the center rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Yeah of course, 3 guys 3 rods, what was I thinking, LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Around here, Mike, the downrods are never more than 1-3 wraps out. (7' - 21'). The rod is in the water to keep the bait down but also to pick up any weeds that could possibly foul your bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
