We did pretty well today, trolling bahama mama sling blades and green wedding rings tipped with maggots. Had the best luck along the north end in 80 feet of water, 35 ft deep on the riggers. Limited with 8 kokes and 2 rainbows.

Hey KK, thanks for that! I was letting out 60 feet minimum, about 3 boat lengths, before I'd clip em in the DR. Then I dropped em down to 35 feet on the ball. I tried to keep the speed around 1.5 mph. Hope that helps you out. Good luck out there!
