  1. Special thanks to Missdemeanor for some advice was my 1st time trolling Lake O. Solo trip for 2.5 hours. Went 7 for 9. All 3.75 Super Slims in Green Veggies, Watermelon, and green/chrome. 15 fow. 2X I set out lines and hooked up within 50' of the boat, well before I could get out 100' and get a planer on. They were very aggressive ! I actually trolled for 2 hrs, 9 hookups = every 13 minute. I would fight, land, reset lines and within 5 minutes hooked up again. Barely enough time to enjoy a cigarette and coffee 😂. Very hard to get out in a 14' aluminum unless the waves/wind are low. Was a great experience. Hardest part about solo is maintaining boat speed, fighting and netting by myself, watching boards & finder, keeping boat straight. After 2 hrs, the wet & cold, I was satisfied, tired and called it lol.

  2. I have questions.

    What water temp should I be looking for ?

    Maybe out the Gennessee ? What direction ?

    Head out Gennessee or I Bay ? 

    I understand stick baits and spoons. What about worm harnesses ?

    I have a 14' aluminum with 8hp motor. If waves are 1' or less next week im going to try. I really can't get on Lake O much because I have a small boat. But if the stars align, and I can get some help/info with direction, it'd be extremely appreciated for the almost never opportunity I might get. Thank you
