My torpedo cable wire works great. The deepest I have been with it is 130 feet. I will never go back to coated cable. When I first put my connections together, I forgot to follow step 7 and it would not work. So, I redid it including step 7 and it finally worked. Guess I was too excited to see how it works to re-read each step to make sure I was putting it together correctly. Works great now.
Here are the steps.

SUMMARY & FURTHER DETAILS
====================
Took 2 trolling rookies out today in hopes of getting them a few salmon, however, that did not happen. Did manage to get a 17lb brown on the dipsey out 260. And no, we are not in the derby....oh, well.
Found good temperature (42-48 degree) down 120 on the rigger, but I didn't mark many fish today.
We heard a couple of rumbles of thunder and called it quits....glad we did because when we got back in the bay, the wind became intense and the rain started.
Tightlines!
It is awesome to take 1st timers out on the lake and catch some....great job. I am doing the same tomorrow...taking 2 lake ontario rookies out of Fairhaven.
Thanks for the report....gives me an idea of water to look for. Much appreciated.

Slow today in Oswego. The three flashers and flies that fired were white, white and white. No other color got touched. It got warm out there as the morning progressed.
Here are pics of two of the three fish...didn't get a pic of the steelhead released while still in the net.
I am using the torpedo diver dowrigger cable. It is not coated.

So far, I like it alot and I do not have to worry about the coating coming off.
