    Never had any luck with a rigs out there. Seen some solid fish caught on them but not my go to bait. Can’t wait to get a downrigger.

    Don't mean to be not picking, but a comment made in the video was that you had gone to 18lb. Leadcore to get deeper, faster. Well, in truth the higher rating only applies to the pound-test rating of the line covering. So 10 lb leadcore sinks at the same rate as 20 lb test. "Heavier leadcore takes up more room on a smaller reel though.

    I wanna say that the line is suppose to drop at about 5' per color based on a 2 mph boat speed, no matter what pound test it is.

    Actually it took up less space then the 15lb leadcore line.
