    Default Tadpole 1 or 2?

    I've got a question for ya'll. Which tadpole to you prefer for spoons and harnesses out on the lake? It looks like both number 1 and number 2 will reach 30' fairly easy according to the Troller's Bible. Just wondering which size everyone preferred.

    Number 2, due to less line out. but, that's just me.

    Thanks Capt Juls! Guess I've just been overthinking things...sometimes the simplest answer is the most overlooked one. Less line out = Less headache

    Exactly, less line = closer to the cooler!

    Tadpoles vs in-line sinkers? I usually run in-lines and occasionally a mini-disc or two, pulling harnesses at 1 - 1.5 mph. I was wondering what the advantage is of using tad-poles over either of these options? Just curious. I don't have any of those and wondering if it would make sense to pick up a few. Thanks!

    Number 2s have been good producers. Easy to use. No muss no fuss. Simple stupid is always better. I'm not a big fan of in-lines.
