Slow trolling vs Tight lining...
IBNFSHN,
There may be some confusion about tight lining. I know I get mixed up about the same issues you just mentioned.
It would seam to me that you have the best method for 5 foot of water. If your talking slow trolling, it's most affective for me in depths 10 feet and deeper, up to about 35 feet.
I think my view of tight lining is going from brush top to top, with one or two poles that have line pulled out about 10 foot of a 12 foot pole. :confused:
I see what you are saying.......
