On a 1 setting, out 350ft, we trolled into 100fow this morning without dragging (with dodger fly on). We do use two different diameter wires, but that was with the thinner Malin, which gets ~5-10ft deeper than the thicker wire we use. -
Easy way to tell... troll into 80fow @2.1mph down speed and see if they drag. Are you willing to take the Ruff Rider challenge? I bet it isn't getting down more than 65ft @280 on a #3. If I'm right, I get to add the "Ruff Rider" touch to your rigger rods.

It is far from an exact science, but it will get you in the ballpark

I believe they are size 0 with the O ring. They are the largest size without being magnum We use wire line. I assume a general divide by 3 rule on a one setting and a divide by 5 on a three setting. As far as max depth, I don't really know, but can say that sometimes at 350 on a 3 setting, they won't get bit. Drop it to.450 and they get hammered.

450 dipsey ripping

Really like using bells on my rigger rods! That way every rod had an "audio alarm". I noticed in my videos I wasn't seeing the rigger rods very quickly, especially my blindside (starboard rigger). Now the only problem is, I'm like Pavlov's dog. Whenever I hear a bell, no matter where I am, I jump and my adrenaline rushes!
