Last week while trolling @ 1.5 mph I was running P10 50' of line out, add 1oz snap weight and another 66' of line out. According to PTD the 1oz gets me down 20' and the P10 will run 8' deep with 50' of line out so my lure was @ 28'. We were generally in 30' of water and only hit bottom when we got into water less than 25'.
Is it accurate to add the depth of the snap weight to the lure depth? The %'s I am reading here seem way too shallow.
