With a TD11 using 10lbs braided power pro?

I have ordered the trolling guide but have not received it yet and am going fishing this weekend.

Thank you and stay safe out there.

that's thin line...

as such, likely you would get there with 180-200' out....

i use 30lbs braid (8 diameter) and I'll get 30 down with about 250' out.

Most Deep diving cranks dive to a max of 30' and after that you plateau Steve is most likely pretty close any line out after that will not effect depth but most likely effect action

You can always also cheat and use a small bottom bouncer to help, I do and let out about 150 ft.

Get some snap weights!

Try Pro Musky, West Lake Willows for Scott or Canadian Tire in Belleville.
Ask for the Torpedo weight system. or google torpedo weights to get info on them.

If you're referring to 10lbs diameter braid, you will achieve a 30 foot depth with a 130 ft of line.

Agree. I think it actually says on the box of the TDD that it will dive 30' on 100' of 10 pound diameter line. Not sure, but I think so. Don't know how deep my lures dive, on how many feet of line, cause I can't see them. LOL

The guide is just a guide,you have to take into consideration boat speed,current,wind speed,braid/mono,type of lure,and more.
