My buddy, Mike at the helm of his new Everglades...the two black knobs let you slide the front window down to catch the breeze or up to block the breeze...three lead-core rigs in the rod holders...

What did you have on the business ends of those lines? I'm assuming lead core w/lures since you were dragging the buckets w/ the big motor.

Great pics thanks for sharing. Beautiful boat. ;)

BR, trollin' lead-core, the standard lure is a 1 oz. Blakemore Roadrunner either Chartruse/wht or Blue/wht or Solid wht...tail that w/ a squiggly-tail rubber worm of same color...other lures we use are Cisco Kids and deep-diving Rapalas, both in larger sizes...you can also use Rattle-Traps and Bayou-Boogies...

I haven't, but some are towin' umbrella-rigs w/ lead-core...so it's really whatever YOU think a striper will hit in deep water...
