get some leadcore line. Its color coded so oyu can know what depth the rig is at. I think for every 10' of line you get 1 ' of depth or something like that

hey shawn, i play softball against the kid who owns the company and i think the recommendation for the rig is at least 40lb. test. what i do with mine is drop it down beside the boat while in neutral, let it go straight down to desired depth and then begin your troll. if you set it out while moving, it tends to stay up higher in the column. see how that works.

Shawn I use them alot and fish with 45# leadcore. It works out each color out is 5' in depth so trolling in 16'-18' water two colors out puts you at 10' two and a half out you are at 15' or so and catching that fish that shows at 16-18' on the depth finder Check your pm's I mailed you the other day and you have not read it yet And do they work? You tell me!
