I think trolling is good for pelagic species such as tuna and mackeral, also good for trout and other salmonids, but for bottom dwelling species such as flathead it's better to use bait on the bottom.

You obviously haven't tried bottom trolling then Easty? "As an 'ambush' predator the flathead will chase, and attack a slow trolled bait within a few metres of the bottom..."

So to add...trolling may be underestimated, and under used as a method of luring your target?!?
