Re: leadcore trolling question

I use 000 Dodger's, I estimate I gain an additional 4'-5' with a 50' leader, so with 3 colors and a 30'-50' leader, approx. 18'-20' down.

Good Luck

Re: leadcore trolling question

I bet it will be a little shallower and with 3 colors of mini lead (14lb.) and a 4/0 dodger at optimum dodger speed (@2.1 mph) you will only be down at most 10 feet AT MOST. if you go slower it will go considerably deeper. i believe that a dodger does not allow lead core to go as deep as with a lure alone. (only if you are working the dodger to it's full potential), if you work it lazily it will pull down deeper.

Of course it is, what was I thinking.
My mind must still be in Turkey Mode.
