Title: Trolling Tackle Recommendations
Post by: Hotrod on June 02, 2007, 04:01:35 PM

Got a 100$ Gift Card to Harry's from "Santa" that's burning a hole in my pocket.

I want to set up a lure/trolling box.

Any recommendations?

lures/spoons..leaders..etc

HotRod,

I'm assuming you want to troll Bass/Blues....would go with 24" Umbrella Rig with 6" Shads, Bunker Spoons White or Chartruse at least 300' of trolling wire backed with 50 lb FLorocarbon, and a 20' 60' Florocarbon leader

7' Trolling pole so the spoon will get the proper action. Would also put 2-4 oz trolling weights in the box. Hope this helps  ;D

Wow Rod,
I'd of had that $ spent before Santa had a chance to get down the next chimney.

All that CaptBob said and maybe a deep diving plug or two.
