1) over the last 2 years I have fished for walleye from mid October until mid May
I have found it to be a waste of time to fish when wind is coming OUT OF THE SOUTH in 55 FOW or shallower
I have found it to be 50/50 when wind is coming OUT OF THE NORTH in 55 FOW or shallower
since I have a small boat I have not gone out deeper at that time of year
when wind coming OUT OF THE SOUTH from mid October until mid May
my 3 choices are 1) fish for trout along breaker walls or river 2) try local lakes 3) stay home
2) I have noticed there is a true strategy to turning my boat at a 45 degree angle for 3-4 minutes
that means once the boat is turned at 45 degrees I then go straight for 3-4 minutes
I have seen other boats making shorter quicker turns
I found that to tangle lines and not to be of true use
3) A QUESTION I use 1-3-5 oz. weights starting at 63 FOW using all Bandits
I troll North at 2.6 MPH I then turn 45 degrees right then go straight for 3-4 minutes
I turn 45 degrees left now I am going NORTH again I go straight for 3-4 minutes
I keep repeating these to turns working my way NORTH NORTH EAST
Facing Towards Back of Boat
I have 3 poles I use 5 oz. on far left I use 3 oz. on middle I use 1 oz. on far right
since I AM working my way NORTH NORTH EAST
the 5 oz. pole on the inside will fall through the water to deepest FOW and go slowest
the 3 oz. pole will fall to middle FOW because of 45 degree turn and go middle speed
the 1 oz. pole will be at shallowest FOW and go fastest
Yes the Bandits all move different because of the 45 degree turn
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE
TO WORKING NORTH NORTH EAST USING RIGHT THEN LEFT TURNS
OR GOING NORTH NORTH WEST USING LEFT THEN RIGHT TURNS
since both times I am simply making 1- 45 degree turn in both directions
