Dave Bailey Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Pretty sure that I did something like that when I was a kid, probably most of us have, just playing around. Don't remember having success, but I might try it again when the opportunity arises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Never tried it, but it looks a bit boring after you get a fish on, not much of a fight when you don't have any line out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnb_cbr Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Up at a popular fly in lodge, I usually have some success and a lot of fun trolling buzz-baits with just a few yards of line out, right beside the boat. I don't waste a lot of time on this, and haven't caught anything huge, but watching them strike a buzz-bait right beside you is an amazing sight! BTW...Leaving for our 2012 trip next weds!

johnnyb Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I like the bit about going back and forth on a spot, almost like figure-eighting a musky.....but I don't see how this is really that effective. He missed all kinds of areas that he should've been casting tight to shore. Most I would take from it is zigzagging the bait a few times at boatside, when you're right up against the weeds. Otherwise....I'll let the wife do the sweeping and I'll catch the fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krixxer Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 that looks like sweeping, I'm not crazy about housework Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoty Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I love the sweet "pump you up" text slides! "And now more ACTION".... I'll throw my Nitro and a Horny Toad up against his "sweeping" any day of the week, LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 A good technique for those who are too lazy to cast & crank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 I have a technique called 'orbing'. Hook on a red/white spherical bobber and pop it. Probably equally as effective - and silly looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pike slayer Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 not a bad idea when your buddy is trying to get his snag and u have nothing better to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben_Daniels Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 I have a technique called 'orbing'. Hook on a red/white spherical bobber and pop it. Probably equally as effective - and silly looking. You can actually get bobbers with a concaved head that are specifically made for popping, a lot of saltwater guys use them for redfish and sea trout with a shrimp or other bait. Might be something to look into! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
