lesson learned
Well guys after getting my new reels I thought I'd measure them out and check the accuracy at 100 ft like the skipper told me. The new reels measured dead on! So I thought it would be a good time to check the old reels to see how they were reading. Accudepth 17's were reading 100 @ 100 feet, the accudepth 27's were reading 117 @ 100 ft and the shakespeare arsenols were reading 128.5 at 100 ft. The bottom line is, I was never fishing consistantly at the depth's I thought I was. I think the difference in the amount of line on the spool was the biggest problem, I just never realized it could be so drastic.
Thanks again everyone! The education I'm getting will definitely make me a better fisherman. Now I hope the weather doesn't shut down the great bite that's been going on so I can try them out this weekend!
See you on the water.
