    Default spring trolling

    Hello from Wis... be on the lake this Sat. I usually troll crawler harnesses but no mention of anyone using them. What do you think?

    Might be a little cold yet. Usually when the water temp. gets up in the fifties. Heck try them, just bring some stick baits also.

    Several of the NWT tournament guys reported they took their fish with harnesses and some of them finished in the money. I believe it was last weekend. Speeds were .7 to 1.5. I am assuming the speed is GPS but they didn't say, just gave those numbers for their speed.

    So it sounds like the worm bite is on!

    They've started on crawlers, but bring the husky jerks with you too. You can run both at 1.0-1.3.

    We took a few on crawlers up high....1oz inlines 25-35 back.

    That way the fish can tell you what they want.

    Default harnesses

    a buddy of mine fished last weekend and took 2 tickets on harnesses... didn't ask where he was at because I couldn't make it out and I figured they would move by the next time I make it out. but I would try both and see what the fish are hungry for ... never hurts to bring to much rather than getting out there and they catching fish on what you don't have.

    The top Two in the Cabelas tournament were pulling crawlers. Spoons are also going according to several reports. Bring it all and see what works best.
