-Jig for macks, troll a bit -just a bit if spotty

-Blues, I like anywhere from 3 to 5 knots, many times the higher speed get the blues hitting better.

-Bass, Depends- jigs in the water column 3knots. Jigs thru the sand. 2 knots. Tube and worm 1.5 to 2.

Now when it comes to trolling buckets to slow you down as many people have to do. My advice, troll a sea anchor from your BOW cleat, with enough line so it comes about halfway down the side. Why? it will NEVER get in your prop(s). You will forget about it otherwise and it will end up in your prop after playing fish. Writing form experience.
