    Default Chains


    I have a 17.5 foot Nitro and was wondering what length 3/8" chain I should get to drag. I was thinking two chains at 7' each. Thanks in advance!

    I pull 2 five foot 5/16 sections and have 2 five sections of 1/4 I can add if need be. I don't want them hard to pull myself, fishing out of a 18 1/2 glass boat. Good luck

    At least get 25' for each. The more you let out the slower you can get.

    Very rare on Grenada to fish water over 15 foot and most of the 10 to 12.
