dive curve for 20 back 2oz weight

[Reel_Deal]

can anyone tell me the depth i would reach running a deep walleye bandit 20 ft back with a 2oz snap weight then ran 70 ft back from there. i can't seem to find it. also what it would be for 80 back maybe 60 back so on so on.

thanks in advance

Nobody will be able to accurately give you that depth without knowing the trolling speed to go along with those leads.

Well that's pretty accurate lol. With bandits I've been trying to stay around 2.5 2.7 with 30 lb braid. No leaders just pulling straight off the back.

Like mentioned, weight depths are driven by speed. Also if you are going across/with/into the currents out in the lake. That changes the diving depth. You can start with this. But it is only a reference/starting point.

20 back on a bandit by the chart is about 7 ft. At about 2.0 mph, 2oz 60 back is about 17, 70 back is about 19, 80 back is about 21.

So about 24,26 28 at 2.0 mph.......if your doing 2.5 to 2.7 it will be shallower weights are greatly effect by speed. The 2 Oz at 1.0 60 back will get about 30ft, at 1.5 it is about 19, at 2.0 it is about 17. So even going over waves will cause these depths to go up and down, same as around corners.

If you are running speeds 2.5-2.7 give this site a try. Most other weight dive curves stop at 2.0 mph and that is a big difference compared to 2.7 mph. Just take your crankbait depth from its dive curve and add that depth to the depth you get from this dive curve at your 60, 70, and 80’ leads. Just remember this just gets you a ballpark number, definitely not an exact depth. When I run weight I make sure to make a lot of turns.

Wow played around on that, 2oz at [email protected] 60 back say 16.3ft at 2.7 9.2 big big big differance

The big question is...unless your fishing in more than 40fow, why are you even running snap weights with Bandits?

Easy, to run the depth without running 80-120 ft of line.

Bandit 60 to 80 runs 15-18... w 2 0z add 8 ft,,,, so 23-26.. plus or minus dependent on speed.. line diameter.. ect.[/B][/U][/B][/U]

I must have misunderstood, thought he said bait,20',2oz,another 70 equals 90fb....which means he not planning on fishing anywhere west of the islands.

right now i have no plans of running west of the islands. i'm running in 40 fow and someone gave me this system and i was just wondering what depth i was running at.
