    Lots of line. I usually run 1/4 oz heads on pete's rigs with a 3/4 oz bucktail on the center. I let our 150 to 200 yards of 40 lb braid and can get them on down there to probably 18 to 20 feet trolling at about 2.5 mph. I have added a 1 oz egg sinker above the swivel I use for my 5 foot fluorocarbon leader to get deeper, but now usually just put them on the down rigger if I want to go deeper.

    I troll with medium or MH heavy ugly sticks and 20-25lb line.

    I troll around 2.0 and have no problem running them 8-12ft, so at that speed, i am sure it will not be a problem.

    Thanks Pete. Didn't know why you trolled so fast? Usually slower does better for me. Guess in spawn on suspended crappie it triggers bite more?

    Sorry Pete but you're not supposed to sell in the forums. There is a Member Sponsored Classified Ads forum for that purpose.
