Hi everyone, new here and really excited to have found this
place. I am a compulsive / obsessive crankbait troller and it is nice
to see some other people on here who troll cranks. I love it so that
even when the conditions are better for another style of fishing, I still
troll... For me, it became an addiction, at least after I started figuring
it out. I tryed it off and on for several years with no success, then
one day after work a fellow took pity on me - we went to the lake
and he showed me some of what I was doing wrong - enough to start
catching a few and learning as I went. Been trolling crankbaits for
about 4 years now and I'm HOOKED! Used to side-pull jigs Gant style,
but burned out after a couple years. I usually fish Bay Springs or Pickwick,
occasionally Sardis or small state park lakes. I was equally pleased to
see talk about crankbaits and not one mention of my "pet" lure - whew!
Bandits are only the begining... More later, Jeff
