    Default Power trollers


    Now that the bnm power trollers have been out a while what’s everyone’s take on them pushing 2-3 oz weights?

    So even with all that weight you can still see those little light taps?

    You can see lighter strikes with them.....They are designed for power trolling....pushing jigs, road runners, etc. at higher speeds than spider rigging or longlining. I have been pushing them at 1.8 to 3 mph. some use heavier weights and push those type baits even faster. I use them to push crankbaits at 1.4 to 1.8. Still learning with them. But i like them.... I have all 14 footers.

    Been using them ever since they came out pushing 3oz with roadrunners they work great. Rarely use a net with them just sling them in the boat like a tuna !!
