the "troller's bible" 7 edition

In hopes of catching walleyes etc, I decided to find out about trolling. The recommended book is "Precision Trolling" by Dr. Stephen Hold, Mark Romanack, and Tom Irwin. I ordered a brand new one from a used book service online, www.abebooks.com and it arrived today.

It came in a thick zip lock bag, and I thought, "gee, they really expect you to protect this on the boat! Imagine my even greater surprise, when I found that the book pages & cover are.......all made of waterproof plastic! That's a big plus for taking a book on a boat. Well, I gotta run, but more soon on this serious book.

Precision Trolling is a great book, I highly recommend it! It gives you the benefit of knowing exactly what depth your baits are running, especially when used with line counter trolling reels. Ken and I use a variety of lines for trolling. Fireline, 10 lb. Trilene XT, and leadcore are all good choices at times, it really depends on the situation.

A new lure that I'm looking forward to trying is the Rapala Deep Taildancer. The color patterns look awesome and according to Rapala it will dive to 30 feet! I'm not sure what pound test they used to achieve that depth but I assume it was 10 lb.
