Thread: trolling cranks on Raccoon

trolled for 4.5 hrs today and caught 10-12 small crappie, a 2.5# largemouth and had ahold of what felt like a big striper or catfish, hit a 3 in chart. crank bait over about 38-40 ft of water by dam, only had it on a couple seconds but it as big, had it on a 8 ft Tony Roach Walleye trolling rod an it bent it down into the water when I to it from holder, could feel him shake his head then came loose. Didnt keep any or take pics.. we lost probably at least 10 more crappie that pulled loose on top of the water when reeling them in. A good day altogether.

sure does sound fun. i have been trolling up trout here in the north. tiny cranks behind 1oz of weight down under the boat 20ft. good way to cove water.
