Same answer as lovetohunt I usually troll on 1 or 2 casting as much as I can and changing lures about every 5 minutes or when I break a line. When I start catching fish I slow down and work the area when it gets hot I drop an anchore. You'll catch 10 times as many fish trolling like that than you will off the bank or just dropping anchore in a random location, plus you get to see the lake and if your on your game you can map all the brush piles and come back to them later. (Thats where all your lost lures will be! :P )

I don't move unless I've tried a few of the major colors and lures. I've seen it before where a guy leaves a spot and 15 minutes later someone is in the same hole pounding the fish, so i like to try a little of everything before I move. This is especially true with icefishing and early season panfishing around MI.

depends on a lot factors, like how close you are to other potential "hot spots", how many other "spots" you know of, or plan to fish, and what your goals are. Not everyone goes out and tries to catch as many fish as possible. My strategy for numbers is different than if I'm after BIG fish. You expect to catch fewer. I will stay longer if I'm after big fish.
