They are getting much better, though, as I see most boats from Texas now have trolling motors. These are a must for successfully fishing Big Lake. However, over-using them can be equally as devastating to schools of fish. So, use them on the lowest power setting possible. AND, when you are fishing in a group of boats and decide to leave kindly use your trolling motor to get out of the pack at least 100 yds. before cranking your motor.

Why you hatein' on Texans ?? I've seen plenty of LA. boats without trolling motors.

Here is a problem I have had with Texas boat.......98% Were Texas Boats that wanted to wade.

Here I am trolling and Drifting a bank area....No I dont care if some guys come wade.......But I get a BOAT or TWO Boat loads of Texan cut me off and jump out to spread 10 guys out...........Now I just troll right thought them and or Crank Up and wrap donuts........If your going to wade 10 guys you need to find a area where no boats are fishing.......this is stupid......Ill RUN EM OVER
