    I too am a pastor in North Carolina. I fish High Rock some. It is a a two hour drive for me from Crouse. I also troll. Any recommendations as to where to troll on High Rock, it is a large lake.

      It really depends on the time of year. In the spring you want to troll the creeks but in fall and winter, lots of times the main channel is good

    Thanks for the advice, learned a lot. Never really fished this way before. Can I use different size jigs on the same line say 1/32 and 1/16 or do they all need to be the same size? Also you mentioned either putting a weight on the line or changing out the jig. If I choose to change out the jig do I have to go back through the entire process with the line or is there another way of doing it for a quick change out? mj

    • @brilliantfishingnc
      @brilliantfishingnc  Місяць тому

      Sure, you can use different size jig on the same line. You’ll just have to guesstimate your depth.
      As far as quick change out, I don’t know any great way to do it other than just cut off your old jig and tie a new one on

      @@brilliantfishingnc Thanks next time I go out, I'm going to try this technique. I fish normally on Lake Guntersville in Alabama. I will try to get a screen shot for you. There's a certain area where the fish year round are on a 25ft deep rock ledge that covers a lot of area. Normally boats are just sitting; I'm going to try this technique in hopes of drawing the fish out to me. (:

    This is the video I’ve been looking for. I grew up fishing Clark’s Hill lake in SC (I refuse to call it Lake Thurmond) and married a gal who eventually inherited her family place so for 30 years I knew all the spots. Life change at 55, and I now live on Lake Hartwell and have just gotten into long lining here. You provided many tips I’ll use for sure. God Bless!

    enjoyed watching your video, hope you do great with your channel, i grew up crappie fishing at night using minnows under lights, thats all i knew, fishing buddy of mine asked me to go crappie fishing with him and i said sure, got my minnow bucket and rod, he ask me why did i bring a minnow bucket , he did stop at the bait store and let me buy some minnows, but he used crappie jigs, i could not believe how many fish he caught on jigs, i have not bought any more minnows, trolling jigs is a fun way to fish, it does not cost an arm and a leg to do it and it is a great way to catch em year round

    You should look into Stren high viz gold original 4 # line. That's what I troll with. Excellent line. Also, instead of Road Runner heads, look up Grenada Lake Tackle.

  • @Manbunmen65
    @Manbunmen65 7 місяців тому

    I fish a kayak with no fish finder and between 2 to 4 rods. Another tactic is adding bobbers to your line when trolling. You can troll slow, troll shallow, or troll deep but maintain your baits shallow if you want.

    You have to love that Mr Crappie high vis line. There are a lot of bright green line on the market but for me it’s just better. Smooth as silk and never seems to set a coil on the reel. And a good value for the money

    What time of the year is best for long line trolling? Are certain weather conditions more favorable?

    • @brilliantfishingnc
      @brilliantfishingnc  Рік тому

      You could ll troll anytime, but I would say spring is best, followed by fall and winter. Summer, in my opinion is not very productive. At least on my home lakes, in summer, fish go deep on brush which makes trolling hard.
