DEADBAIT TROLLING

Rigs or Mounts for Deadbait trolling fall into 3 catagories, mounts that make the Bait Wobble, Roll or Spin.

 A Wobbling mount should keep the bait upright in a natural swimming motion so it looks lifelike as it is trolled through the water.

Rolling mounts make the Bait Roll  through the water in a corkscrew fashion like a fish in its "Death roll" either dying or wounded.

Spinning mounts keep the Baitfish in a straight line but spinning as they are Trolled through the water it does not seem as natural as the 2 other methods but it is and has been a highly effective method for Salmon, Ferox and Pike for years, so who's to argue with a fish.
