OK guys, why are there so many more casters this year vs prior years. Up until this year the vast majority of boats were trolling. Now it seems most are casting. We were out west of Green Thursday and got 7 in about 3 hours casting green Weapons and Erie Dearies. There was a small pack of boats including 6 pack charters and I'd say 90% of them were casting. It was like stepping back in time 20 years!! Why all the casters?? Don't get me wrong. I much prefer casting!
