Thanks for the kind words, Captain Jim and Eyeassassin. It was an honor to serve, and I would do it again in a heartbeat! One thing that I could use some advice on is in the trolling area. I think I am prepared to jig, cast, use bottom bouncers or troll, but I would appreciate any advice anyone has on general areas, depths and lures. I noted some postings about trolling around the cans, and Capt. Dave mentioned spoons as one of his choices for lures, but if anyone has any additional advice, I would be grateful. I am just learning the tricks of trolling, and I have the trollers bible, Off Shore planer boards with tattle flags and a good assortment of crankbaits, spinner rigs, and a few spoons. Most of the walleye fishing I am used to is in south Dakota using bottom bouncers or lindy rigs, but there is some trolling done as well. Thanks again for your kind words, and any advice that you can share.
Phil
