[Paddler]

I was trolling ~2.4MPH yesterday, 640RPM with my Troll Control on my Mercury 115EFI.  Lower RPMs discharge my battery.  Not sure I can get deep enough.  I put a couple of 1oz egg sinkers above a 4' leader to an SR7 without results.  With my drift socks I can get down to 1.4MPH.  Nothing up high in the water column until the shad fry come on.  I may try BB with Shad Raps next.  

All the fish I marked were down 22'.

Funny, yesterday I hooked something big.  Thought maybe a log, which didn't make sense as my lure was running 9' down in 23' of water.  Turned out to be big carp, maybe 10#, hooked through the dorsal fin.
