Finally got a kicker motor and getting ready to start trolling on Cayuga Lake.

Stripping the old off my downrigger poles.

Any recommendations for type and poundage of fishing line would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Gary

I run 30lb berkley big game clear on Seneca, sounds like over kill but never have any problems with fleas, just a couple here and there

The standard go-to is BIG GAME  as for the poundage you may start with something around 15#   Having said that, there are many variables that can change that poundage, but they pretty much are all good today, P-line, blood run, all the stren line, and on and on the list goes.  Almost all the line today is much better than line 15 years ago.

Thank you fellas. Spooled up 2 reels with 16# Big Game and 2 with 10# Sufix. Really appreciate the input.

Trolled from Myers to Milliken. Caught one ding LL about 10" long.

Watched 3 guys vertical jigging in 100 ft of water in front of Miliken. Watched them pull a big Laker, a  brown and a __ in 15 minutes.

So now thinking about a post asking for vertical jigging recommendations. lol
