Is drop shotting legal? That'd be the easiest was to keep the lure in the strike zone for a long period of time. Lighter lure, heavier sinker.

I know that they make some really long rods for crappie fishing. I wonder how they'd work for LMB? (like a huge cane pole)

The "flying lure" didn't work? wink
