ok, my fishing boat is a small johnboat and i have no electronics at all.... just an old trollling motor to move my butt around haha. but i was wondering when it gets hot and the fish are deep, how would you go about fishing deep with no electronics? It seems like im just blindly throwing out into the deep. any tips or advice? what lures to use? thanks guys!

you can get a map of the lake and show the depts. you can fish points and back out. should be deeper out from the points.deep diving cranks pig and jigs and 10 in tr worms.

also if you have weeds get a snagg proff frog and fish them in the hotter months.

Drift the deep weed edge,  you don't need electronics to find the deep weed edge,  just use a carolina rig or whatever your throwing to establish approximately how far off the bank it is,  and drift,  when you catch a fish throw out a marker buoy you'll often catch a few more then move on.  Find a lake map and bring it with you.  If you can't find one you can often find one on your DNR or State fish and game internet site.  Another thing to look at is the bank: is it steep or flat,  you can often tell just by looking at the bank where bottom composition changes.  Keep note where you are catching fish in a log book.  These are some things I would do.  Good luck.
