We noticed the inside line a bit more productive this year. Have not kept accurate track of it in the past, but I do remember the inside seemed to be better most of the time. I also agree on the trolling thing, there is a knack to it, and if not a knack, just a hell of a lot more work than the other 2 bozos do in my boat as I taxi them around the lake. For sure it reaks havoc on the nerves and eyes, constantly watching the depth, shoreline an those ever present nasty rocks that like to jump out in front of you! I hate rocks!!!! Waiting for the bozos to get boats so I can sit back and relax!
