I am curious...can I get a trolling rig (or two) and troll up/down the Chesapeake Bay catching stripers on my 44DA? It can't be that hard, right?
I was thinking of two rods (one in each rod holder) - maybe one for now. No need for planer boards or a crazy setup. Hoping to get something used to start, or can I get something decent for under $100? Just want to have fun and maximize my chances to catch something.
Can I go slow enough? I'll probably have to bump in and out of gear to go 3 knots, or do you think 5-5.5 knots is okay?
What would the rig look like? Umbrellas? Test?
If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
