Thanks: 
Reply With QuoteYes, I make up leaders with a road runner tied to a 8 to 9 inch leader then tied to a 3 way, from the 3 way have a 3 foot leader with whatever snap you use for cranks. Then just snap the three way to the main line. There are days it may a difference

Speaking of reels, this is the best price I have been able to find so far on the Okuma, has anyone found any better options?

Thanks martyr. I only have Black crappie where I fish but now that the water has gotten so warm they are suspended in open water with a few on structure. I was thinking of trying to troll for them. Mostly small ones on the structure now with big ones being suspended.

I tried pulling today for my first time, bought a combo pole with line counter. Calibrated at shop with 10 lb test. running a flicker shad, my pole holder in the back has my pole pretty high in air so I noticed probably to much line in the air. I assume you guys have pole end close to water. I had 150 ft out running in 15 ft water. I was probably running to large flicker shad but I had #7 pulling. Never got a hit was running about 2.5 mph with my 40 hp Yamaha.
I will take any advice and help
thanks

I catch fish on #7s..You were probably running too fast...I so better with them from 1.5 to 1.8

I agree with Knight a little to fast, and also way to much line out. I don't use the flickers really, but looking at the dive chart you were fishing on the bottom in 15 feet of water pulling a 150' of line. Need a few poles running with staggered depths, not sure what your poles regulations are as far as number you can fish in Iowa, but the more poles the better. Better to fish above them rather than below them!
