When Jim McDonald and I were on Navajo lake, we never went below 4 mph, and most of the time we were in the 6 to 7 mph range to get the fish to take.
Religion is a guy in church, thinking about fishing.
Relationship is a guy out fishing, thinking about God!

Re: The xyz's of spoonplugging
In the heat of the summer, you have to pick it up, especially the shallower you troll. As you go deeper, the speeds normally go down but you always have to check it and the heat of the summer is the time of the year you must vary your speeds from slow to pretty fast, 2 to 6-7-whatever. John
