    Same issue with mine. Haven’t tried the update yet, but will. Spent 30 minutes on Friday trying to figure it out. Ended up going back to my tried and trued Vexilar.

    Thanks guys…. So I do a ton of trolling, but it’s generally with two rods…

    The lake I’m going to be fishing averages 10′ deep without much structure besides weeds on the first 100-200 yards out from shore. So we basically troll the shores, then the middle..

    The reason I was asking for rod position is I’ve never trolled with more than a few rods.

    I’m figuring I’d run the planer boards on the two rods closest to the windshield (9′ rods) with the shallowest running baits (likely a SS Shad, jake, or shallow dawg) and the rods straight out. The next rods I’ll run angled more with the tips in the water (planer boards not needed I’d assume?) and staggered the lines (one out a touch more than the other), and then a prop wash bait running deeper like a headlock or mattlock.

    You want bigger needles than what they have at a pharmacy. Go to a farm supply for veterinary needles.

    Thanks, I’ll see if I can get anything at Fleet Farm or Tractor Supply

    I have used a syringe and needle to inject scent into the crawlers. You need a bigger needle to be able to inject the thicker stuff. I think I used a nightcrawler scent. It worked. When I did it we caught 37 sturgeon that weekend.

    You have any idea what size needle you had? I was going to try the Pro Cure injector (heard the needle might be too big) or the berkely worm inflater but figured that would be too small.

    I wouldn’t have any idea where else to get a syringe.

    Edit. Looks like I can go to a pharmacy and buy 10 syringes without a prescription. Going to get some weird looks when I say I’m injecting worms

    Thanks, is there any sturgeon pre-made rigs I can buy?
