I also previously ran homemade big boards. I got all new offshore boards this winter. They seem way easier to fish. I am going to try and circle back much quicker onto fish. I would usually go a half mile away or more to make my loop to avoid tangles. They we're trucky with rougher water. It seemed often times that the fish had either moved or stopped biting as good by the time I got back to the spot? Or....trolling the other direction was not as effective. I'll try tighter circles to try and catch them faster. Does this make sense? I don't mind fishing long days as that is what I am out there for butkstnof my friends can't handle 8-10 hours on the water in the waves weather. Wimps LOL.

So I have both off shores and big boards. My plan for April is to scatter the baits until i find what leads are producing best then pull the offshores and carpet bomb a dozen baits at that lead with the big boards as I can run more lines with the big ones.

every year I try to do something new or different to keep learning. I do this with hunting and fishing. It has really made things exciting when I teach myself something new and it works. I don’t mind failing a few times, it forces me to learn. The key with any of this is to keep an open mind, listen to others and don’t be afraid to try different things.
