Fished south pass Friday night and managed 15 from 7 until dark. 40 tt 30 back with worm harnesses. Fished the buoy on Saturday and came up a few short of our limit but had 3 over 29 inches and another half dozen or so over 28. 115 back on 40 tt with harnesses. Started out with nothing but white bass, but thanks to skipper9 we managed to figure them out.

Good job Greg...
could someone what or where is the south pass......
South passage. South of Kelly's Island to South Of South Bass.
Does anyone have a dive chart for the TT divers? 115 back must be dragging the bottom, I know the water is deeper over there but curious as to where 115 back puts you.
Thanks, Jim
I believe theres an app for smartphones and tru-trip dive charts, although, I kinda go with the 3/1 approach, gets me pretty close, 115 to my tally would be about 27-29 ft, although speed has alotto do with it also, 2.5-2.8 would run around 20', MikeQuote:

I got nervous when I saw that you use a 3 to 1 approach. I always thought it was 2 to 1, after checking the dive charts I see it's both depending on the depth, shallow is more 2 to 1 and deep is 3 to 1 or more. Now I'm off to find the app for my iPad!Quote:

Hopefully you have a dive curve/chart with less gaps in it than the one posted. The TT50 has a better chart. Not sure why the 40's don't.Quote:

speed and current play a huge roll in consistent depth
Can you use this chart to calculate other speeds? As an example; Would a 75 foot lead produce a 15 foot depth at 1.0 MPH?
NO although speed does play a factor on the depth but not THAT big of a factor.Quote:

Don't worry about hijacking, this is good stuff. You guys are getting answers from the man that will know. Thanks Dan!
The TRU-TRIP 40 measures approx 4 7/8" in lengthQuote:
