I'm am a average lake trolley it can change from smooth to 4 to 5 footers in a minute. I will be out there saturday if any problems and you need a hand I can message you my number. I run dipsey flasher fly combo. Also black and white moonshine spoons. If you have ball speed I run 2.8 to 3.5. Pending on current speed is huge for catching fish. Alway check you speed when you hook on to one and the direction you are heading. If you would like my number let me know I will help any way I can.
