heard good & bad with the torpedo wire & antenna. cable breaking & losing everything. ultimately i think a fish hawk is the only cure. search here for discussion...
i buy the 400 foot coated cable from fish307 & load it all on my canon 10hs. i even replace the pulleys to minimize the coating being chewed up. i guess it just nature of the setup. over time strip off 50-75 feet due to coating get chewed off & the signal not reaching the antenna. after 2 years, replace the 400 cable all over again.
the coating on the coated cable is probably getting chewed up. mine does the same. works great for couple of days, then starts no reading deep. you can feel the coating when you bring the ball up. look for silver cable on the spool. been replacing mine and/or cutting back & re-terminating. very frustrating....
great fishing thou!
