Your vege stir-fry is now a standard menu item for me.

Just wanted to circle back and say 'thanks' to everyone for great advice and perspective. Had good luck using the tips from all of you GJ-ers as well as the 'fishing tips for beginners' from this site. My family had a great time eating 'fresh-fish-for-dinner' on this trip! Thanks!

I have used a three way setup and found it is just difficult to use. It seems like your lines are often getting tangled. I went back to an inline sinker. Storing a three way once it is out of the water also presents a challenge.

Thanks! I thought that I was looking at the right thing but wanted to double-check.

Your right about it being more a solo problem.
You want to be moving while letting out the 3-way rig. You let it out slowly and when you see it's not tangling, you can loosen the drag or put it in free wheel and palm it to the estimated depth you want.
Hard to do both solo. I found that if I could get it out okay, I was good unless I stopped and then started paddling ( say for photo-op) then I had problems.

I assume that the problems for fishing solo are different from when paddling tandem. I'm a tandem guy so I'm hoping the 3-way will work out but if not its not a big deal to go back to an in-line set up. My experience in places like WCPP is that I'm going to catch fish in any case. I'm not a trophy fisherman, I'm a paddler who likes to fish. I only fish for what I intend to eat especially when I'm going for trout in the heat of the summer. Once I've got dinner I'm done for the day.

Oh yeah, I know that one - "You can lead a horse to water, but a pencil must be lead."
