Spider Trolling

Spider trolling is a simple way to place your bait in front of a fish for the longest period of time in the most natural manner. Under cold water sand at ice out this means minnows or minnows and a jig. We run three rods per angler, and you want each rod to sit exactly the same. This way if one rod tip changes position you will notice it.

We troll with the wind at our back most of the time because this will keep your rod tips super still. I run the Driftmaster rod holders or trees as many anglers call them.
