I used to think that distance from the boat was a huge factor, but there are days that wire divers do very well...... and the way I run my spread, the wire divers are the closest baits to the boat..... so I'm starting to rethink my position on distance, and will definitely experiment more....... I do think that at this time of year when fish are likely to be "up high", set back distance is pretty important........ and as the water warms, and fish go deeper, it "may" not be quite so important.

I'm hoping to get out this weekend for the 1st trip of the season.
