I always try and control my speed by the pulses in the rod tip from the flasher turnin over. About once a sec seems to be best. Also line angle seems to be a good secondary indicator. Most of the advice I have received, and read, sez to troll with the current but I usually go both ways, against and with. Some days you seem to pick up fish going w/the current and some days going against the current.

I am really curious as to others experience w/this with- the-current or against-the-current thing

Sincerely,
Roger
