You will need different length rods to keep that from happening. Look up Kent Driscoll. He is whom I consider to be the GOAT of crankbait trolling for crappie. There are several YouTube videos of his technique. I mirror his setup...except with fewer rods. It's when you get a stupid blue cat on that you are in trouble. They'll tangle every line you have out.I have never trolled and don't really know the first thing about it, but I have seen them doing it in years past. Ive seen all the rod holders mounted on the sides and back of boats, and soooooo,
Ive always wondered how in the world you keep from getting your lines tangled?? Does it happen on a regular basis?
Or is that the fun part
