trolling for Hybrid Stripers/White Bass --
I catch about as many Hybrids/Whites, when fishing for Crappie - as I catch Crappie, fishing for Hybrids/Whites ... LOL!! And, of course, I catch the occasional Bass, Channel Cat, and various other species. Most of the time it's on the jig ... but, there have been occasions where the Hot-n-Tot was the target (especially by the larger fish).
My partners and I have also caught Crappie, of varying sizes, when trolling a Bomber Flat A in the "Fire Tiger" coloration. And I have caught Crappie while castng a Deep Wee R in the "crawfish" pattern. (and, No ... we weren't specifically targeting Crappie :rolleyes: LOL!! )
NOTE- the "actual" colors of these two baits is not represented by the picture. The 1/16oz marabou jig is solid chartreuse (though of varying degrees of the green/yellow prominence) The Hot-n-Tot is solid chartreuse (or almost an "electric lemon yellow") with black eyes and a red "face" (the "pinkish" looking area around the eyes) They were scanned on my Visioneer 7300, with no color editing done.
And, just for a little FYI ..... the trolling outfit I use - consists of a Shimano Bantam B-100Mag Baitcasting reel on a 6ft Compre rod - 10lb BPS Excel main line & 6lb test leader line of about 18" in length (leader is attached to the front hook eye of the Hot-n-Tot). And you can bet your "favorite" fishing outfit ... that I have a "Lure Knocker" handy, when trolling with cranks :D ........... luck2ya'll ...........cp
