@@sfelmey yes longer leader and anchor lines require slightly less weight but none the less throw a couple more weights on each anchor a junk yard will sell you a couple 5# weights for like a bench press or some roters for next to nothing
All the info on my channel except the 1 on snoods are for crabbing under 20 ft. The depth is always different. When your out there every day you just feel where they are... you might lay the same lay and area... but you lay it a little different every day usually... unless it is really working... which is rare. you just go out and figure it out. you will see what kind of bottom and depth you are catching on and work from there... atleast thats what I use to do... it worked for me.
Jake Phelps usually sandy bottom or muddy bottom works best I've noticed muddy bottom seems better, just my opinion. Crab on the Potomac with pots but just started tinkering around with trotline
That's HILARIOUS, my staffys ears perked RIGHT up on that groundhog chirp
👍
Simple, yet effective. I like it. Thanks for putting this together and good luck this year.
Hey, TY appreciate it, you too
😀made simple---love it
Hi Jake. Was checking out you video. For your chains, is it 2 pieces with 28 links on each or 2 pieces with 14 links?
If you commercial fish, all our yards look the same. Gobless
thanks for the video man helped a lot
I have a 1000ft line. Will 12lb river weights hold it?
little light might drag anchor and loosen when you go to get line on roller expecially any deeper then 8' need atleast 15, 18 or 20 is better
@@Trotlining My leader lines from the achor to bouy and bouy to chain are 50ft each. Will that help?

yea, is nice how... expecially this time of year, how the sooks cant push thru that mud right cuz a their points n ya get more good ones
Any depth up to 15 feet... Usually 3-9 ft is the sweet spot dependent on wear your at and the tides..😊
