i personally like straws when i troll because if you bump a rock on the bottom your float goes down but not the straw usually so when the float goes down i wait for the straw to go down after it so i know its a fish.

i think its a good ideal to use straws when your using live bait.cut bait,you dont need a straw.

i use them all the time, as u get older the eyes seem to not be as sharp, i paint my straws bright yello, or orange, they are a lot easier to see in daylight. i fish them with dead or live bait, also work good trolling
