I think the braid will get pretty deep...alot deeper compared to mono but I think the big issue this time of year when fishing lake ontario is the fleas. Braided line is a nightmare with the fleas. I have not been out on lake ontario in a while but judging by the reports the fleas are a real PITA right now.

I did a little experimenting a couple weeks ago and found out that if you want to get an accurate reading on your copper of lead core you need to let them out super slow because the way the TD works is it reads down to the deepest depth...so if you let your lead core out fast... lets say a 10 color... its droping below 50 ft. before it catches up to trolling speed so it might read 65 ft because thats where it dipped to before the boat started pulling it . I let a 4 color out going 2.0 mph the way I normally would...as fast as the boat will take it and after reeling it in after trolling it for about 10min. it read 55 ft. I'm thinking if you get the boat going maybe 3 or even 4 miles an hour let it out half the speed you normally would and then decrease your speed slowly to trolling speed you would get an accurate reading.

Way to go Mike and Kurt...I can't believe with as warm as it was there wasn't a story of Kurt going over board for a swivel or something I thought for sure when you said you found the hump there would be a story with Kurt jumping in with his mask and snorkel to retrieve your gear and you picking him up on the turn. Well I'm glad you guys got to get out. Did you get that hydro. line fixed?
