Robert....tks for your video post...good info ... maybe a walleye or 2 on the bottom?...Note to FishrFriends...there is no "normal" setback distance in trolling, whether for kokes or trout...your setback could be 5' from the ball, or 150'.... just depends...Here's just a few of my 'depends': what kind of boat/propulsion do you have? larger boat/larger noisier motor, or small craft/ no noise electric motor....are you fishing deeper in summer or shallow early season/early A.M.?...do you have the lake to yourself or do you have lots of competition where your lines can get run over?... are you running 2 lines on each side, where maybe one should be setback further from the other? Are curious kokes looking at your ball, and your lures are 50' behind the ball? You can figure out answers to these, and other variables, with time on the water and practice...that's what makes trolling fun (or frustrating)...but that's fishing...Guluk...
