The amount of fuel you would need to get there and back and troll ... wouldn’t seem like it would fit on the boat

I used 8-10 foot leads
my lines got tangled and I had to cut them
I forgot my 25 LB. Mono that day and had to use a 42" leader
since that pole had the Yellow lure it still caught the most fish
YELLOW has been the color since MAY
I started using 3-4 foot leaders they worked just as good
I have 125 foot of 1 color then 125 foot of another color that puts lines out 250 feet
If anyone needs exact size weights
I go on EBAY. send a message to sellers who sell that style weight
ask for the weights you want
my first order was for 3-4-5 oz pyramid weights 10 of each 30 total for 25 dollars shipping included
this is the time to get best prices
Van Dam ware house had the best prices on Bandits $ 5.84 I had to order 9 to have free shipping
I put 200 feet then 125 feet then 125 feet 450 total
first 200 40 lb braided then 30 lb braided then 20 lb braided
both 40 and 30 lb are cheaper lines about 13-17 dollars for 1000 meters on Ebay
line near lure is 20 lbs. 37 dollars for 1000 meters on Ebay
I have not had any fish break my 20-30-40 lbs. braided lines since I started fishing again from a boat in 2019
nor have any broke my 25 lb Mono
my biggest Trout 27+ inches about 7 1/2 lbs. and Walleye 28+ inches about 7 1/2 lbs. in 1 year of fishing
I let about 400 feet of line out once this year just to try it.
after about 50 minutes I reeled it in since it was the only pole NOT to catch a fish.
I found a small 11 inch walleye on it. so all of my poles had caught a fish that morning I just did not realize it.
my old 2 stroke engine used about 4 gallons my new 4 stroke uses about 2 Gallons
