Don't think the line diameter that big an issue to match up with all the dive charts.Even though have lines calibrated,not even sure how much better it helps me catch better.Unless one rod way off,like 10ft different than others at 100ft.When starting to troll we try and spread depths out to cover water column,then when start catching,changing other rods to the depth that are producing.Now lets say my #2 tadpole is catching well at 45 and I change over my other 3 rods to get same depth.I may put another at 45 on opposite side of boat and the other 2 at 47 and 43.I have found that the difference of 1ft of depth doesn't really catch better than another.That one foot difference is about same as the line diameter gives you, or if your reels are not calibrated.Maybe for tournament fishing for bigger fish it does,but we don't fish for money.

X2 on the 30lbs braid. We put 1000ft of big game 25lb then 500ft of power pro. We double check all the final out to 100. 400 actually buts me square on but with 500 i read about 2 to 3 ft long at 100 which noreally only makes a few inches in depth being that far out. Plus it gets me extra line on the reel for a few tangles or brakes without having to strip all the braid off. I want to note all my distances were using the reel counter not actual lengths.
All diameters of reels will take different lengths to make them filled correctly. Thanks Jim from eye hunters for the trip on getting my okumas filled fast and correctlyLast edited by branhamautomotive; 08-06-2017 at 08:57 PM.
