vinnimon Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 I have been toying around to slow my troll down a tad and its worked. This is what I have found so far. I have used the plastic eco bags from the barn etc, they do work but they will rip easily. Ok so I seen the bags at homedepot and gave one a shot today Tough as nails so far for a buck No need to cut holes at all, it worked well On a better note it worked best a foot out and a foot in from the stern Better than 80$ a pop.

vinnimon Posted July 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 i've used an Ikea bag for years. work excellent! i have 2 drift socks but half the time i find myself throwing the ikea bag over first! I find the socks take up valuable space thats needed.Being a newbie to this trolling thing, I find the green hd bags tough enough, esp for a buck a bag.And the metro plastic ones will tear easily and still work.

vance Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Slightly more expensive,but I have used a couple of collapse able camping buckets for 10 years without a hitch including a couple of high speed runs when I forgot I had them out :wallbash: vance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
