| It works, follow your hunch, give it a try and use more line than you think. |

Location: oswego, il | At night is fine, use your electric unless you have a kicker that will crawl you along. Creepers, da rat, hawg wobbler, slow movers are great for this. |

| Yep...this works. Learned this a strange way...was running the line out on a couple of my reels, one had a creepenstein, the other had a pacemaker and I put the put in forward, got the line run out and let it drag until I got out to a more remote area on a lake where I wouldn't bother any other boats. Half way out there and a fish exploded on the creepenstein. Hmmm....I say. Focused a little more on refining this tactic and now on my way in from fishing or if I can take my time getting out to a spot on lakes where trolling is legal I'll always chug along with a few lines out and one of them is always a surface bait. |

Location: Des Plaines, IL | At our last MI meeting the guide said to put weights on your line a foot or two infront on the bait. I haven't got out to try it but I will next week. |
