rpike: "I love trolling crankbaits for lakers, in particular Reef Runners and #9 shad raps, depending on how deep and how tight a wobble the fish want. I like Reef Runners better than Tail Dancers to accomplish the same job, but either will do.
That being said, don't leave home without some spoons you can troll deep. Oftentimes, spoons will flat out-perform crankbaits. Snap weights will get you down deep with any lure, or Jet Divers or Fish Seekers used with flutter spoons. "

Don't forget a depth finder.
