Catch & Cook in the Backwoods of the Adirondacks

David was trolling from his canoe at a plodding speed. Two spin-cast rods sit in holders, one out each side, running an 8lbs fluorocarbon line down to a Clear Lake Wabbler Spoon with swivels on each end tied on with the improved clinch knot. The speed you are looking to achieve is the speed that will make the Wabbler wobble back and forth but not spin in the water. You know you're at the right speed when you can see a subtle twitch on your rod tip bouncing smoothly at the rate of a heavy heartbeat. Behind the Wabbler is about 18 inches more fluorocarbon line with a size four baitholder hook speared through a scented artificial bate resembling a leech or earthworm. David prefers the ones that are about four or five inches long with paddled tails for a little extra action in the water. David's Pro Tip: You can also run 6lb leader from wobbler to hook, so if you snag, you only lose the hook, not the wobbler as well. The above is a segment from a story written by Cody Bokshowan for WeatherWool.
