Unfortunately, its not just a kayak to boat thing. The same thing happens when you're in a small boat and a larger boat is in the area. big boats love to wake my 17ft. i love giving them my spool of braid.


That being said, what are you trolling for? halibut versus yt vs sharks can be different. current and trolling speed also play a factor. I would say "troll whatever length make the bait in the strike zone", but we have no idea if its in the strike zone when the FF can't see it.
