Jehler, how are those scatter raps? They really have a good erratic action like it says?

Is the body different or is it the lip? I figured it just more of a U or similar shaped lip where it ties into the body allowing water to push over it differently giving it a different action. i've thought about trying one out, just don't have a lot of use for suspending jerk baits here.

Where we fish the bars let out and we get to see so much funny stuff and conversations, but also fights as we troll the mouth of the river. We're launching at 830 tomorrow night and fishing til ~9am

We just added 20ish feet of copper to a couple rods between the power pro and the fluorocarbon, I think that's going to be the new secret weapon

Scatter rap was the hot bait on the Atlantic's, I would not underestimate its abilities, very husky jerk ish with more action

We will have the riggers down with gaudy harnesses. In more open water the riggers have spoons for sure.

you know the army light sticks. A third the diameter but same length light sticks are avilable at the dollar general around here. We elcetrical tape them and they last 8 hours. My drag is super tight for walleye to sink the hook. Ive lost alot of fish setting the drag to detect bites.

I'm ignorant to walleye really, I have caught a few trolling like you have posted above at 1.8- 2.5 ish, most guys like to slow troll with bottom bouncers, I don't have the patience for that unless bulldog takes me, then I keep busy making fun of his stuff
