Ya might want to take a look at Yakima Baits Mag Lip lures. They have a unbelievable action to them.

I ordered 4 of the Bare Naked lures. 27 feet is a magic number for summer trolling. I'll report back after I try them.

txfour, you can buy line counters and be much more precise with trolling. you can figure out by seeing how far they will dive by a combination of running speed and at what depth the lure will hit the bottom at what length of line let out. I've been very successful doing that for white bass during late summer when they roam around a lot and trolling is the most productive.

I usually let line out from the time it takes me to get a beer from the cooler, pop the top and put orange beer salt on the rim. I am guessing about 50 yards with that lure.
