Always wanted to set trotlines, this quarantine gave me a bit of time to put one together, Roughly 200 ft long with 24 7/0 circle hooks with loops for weight at the on each end and in the middle. Plan on using a combination of black salties and live perch, can any of you pro's give me any tips on what to look for when setting the trotline up?

If your fishing a reservoir find a place where you can stretch it close to and parallel to the river channel near a shallower flat. Personally I’m not a fan of black salties but some people swear by them

Originally posted by cwbrown View Post10/4 Thank you, I should have put this in the original message but I will be fishing a river about a mile from a upstream of a reservoir, going to be putting it out via kayak so I am limited on how far I can travel.
In a river I’d put it along the deep drop off in a bend.
