Amen to the drifting and actually having the thrill of feeling the fish fight. I have no problems with the trollers unless they try to run me over!! Maybe some day when I can no longer hold a pole I may have to resort to that but I'm happy for now having that one on one with the fish that I caught with my own two hands!! I still get that adrenaline rush when I fight a 15" walleye and I'm afraid it wont be the same catching one trolling.
