Re: Fleas
They are early this year and worse than ever... If your not using 30lb test or more, dont even bother using a down rigger and a slide diver line with 50lb power pro requires a wet towel pit crew to remove the fleas as you real in the fish.. Not good;(

Re: Fleas
The trolling I do on Champlain is pulling deep-divers behind my kayak for smallmouths and pike in and around Burlington. That had never given me a problem before, but today I got overwhelmed with fleas. I had to give up after two passes and switch to just casting.
