    Default Bobby Garland Strol'R


    Anybody use these? They are made for long line trolling, I picked up a few packs, but really can't get any action out of them. Maybe I like to troll to slow for these baits. I like to run around .8, and at that speed, these baits just drag through the water. I rig them on a 1/16 leadhead.

    I came accross a good buy on a bunch of strollers a while back and I primarily slow troll to I took a razor to them and converted them to baby shad. Hard to tell the difference from the real thing!

    Have you caught anything on them?

    .8 mph is perfect for the Hot Grub's curly tail.

    Not a bite, they just kinda pull through the water.

    Here is what they look like

    I have caught some nice crappie using them. I use them on a road runner and keep the speed between .05 to .07 longlining. These were caught in March using them.

    I've never used 'em but dont be afraid of running 'em a little faster. Even during these hot summer months I've caught fish running as fast as 1.2 mph. I usually pull 1/16th jigs with southern pro hot grubs and all summer long I've been pulling jigs at .9-1.1 mph and have been catching fish.
