[QUOTE="jlanecr500, post: 5309919, member: 16430"] I grew up creek fishing on family property. My grandfather had 50 acres on the clinch River and he liked to fish it and run Trott lines in the 60's and 70's but I never got into it. A few years ago, I got into lead core striper trolling with Musky lures in summer and fall on Norris. Occasionally we will pull 3 lines before things get going real heavy in the fall. But once things pick up, it's a bad idea. Having a double is enough to deal with much less 3. One time last season, I was forced to leave one rod in the holder with a fish on so the we could reel the other 2 in. Luckily it was still on there. They put up a fight that intensifies when the water cools in October. Its definitely a different style of fishing. I also enjoy fishing for white bass when they spawn like right now and walleye is getting ready to fire up. I'm not a big lm or sm bass fisherman. We typically eat what we catch. Just because it doesn't turn my crank doesn't mean that I look down on those who do. It's easy to get offended when someone throws shade on your action but in reality, I'm glad there aren't more people wrestling striper on Norris. It keeps things less complicated. [/QUOTE]
