I think I got Rick interested in the AFW Braid downrigger cable. It has a elliptical shape like "flea-flicker" line so it does not accumulate fleas too bad, it is a stealthy green color, terminates with a knot, soft on the hands, and does not make that hum that wire produces. There is a video on Capt. John King's site with underwater audio that depicts how loud that wire hum is under water. The hum has an attraction factor when fish are active....no doubt but what about those big boys that have been stung by hooks before? There may be negative feedback to that hum and big fish that are equating the hum with danger. Those underwater feeds of kings screaming in to hit a bait then turn away at the last minute. Negative cues to blame?
