Re: March 1 report
If he was using 2oz weights, then you can figure it was running close to 11 feet. If it was a 1oz weight it would be 9 feet.
How do I get this? I was taught by an old timer that for every ten feet of line out, after the snap weight is attached, with 1oz, you can add 1 foot...2oz would be 2 feet.
So, if the lure is running at 7 feet down at 40 back (unassisted), and you put a weight on at the 20 foot mark...add 4 more feet to the original 7 feet, because 20 feet after the snap weight would get you 4 more feet....using the 2oz at 40 back (assisted) for a total of 11 feet.
To run at 11 feet unassisted you would need 106 feet of line out, so it's better to use the snap weight... for shorter leads.
This is what I was taught....I'm sure others will have their own opinions on the matter, but it seems to work for me, so I'll just keep using this math. lolCaptain Julia "Juls" Davis
