Many people use trolling to discover new fishing ground or to target certain fish that you wouldn’t ordinarily catch from bottom fishing. There are various methods used for trolling. 1 is using lures with lips that causes them to dive at various depths. 2 using a plainer or down rigger to target a specific depth. 3 using out riggers to have a wide spread of lines and at the end of these lines skirted jigs with ballyhoo or some other type of bait to attract the top water species of fish. You can use all these methods and they will increase your chances of catching more fish. Don’t forget this is an trial an error just like any other type of fishing you may do. The color of the lure, the speed that you troll, and even the area that you are in or all vital factor on your success.
