[QUOTE="wkndwarrior, post: 256499, member: 2073"] Ask 10 different people and you'll get 10 different answers. Personally I don't do a ton of it but I run 2 set ups with a little mono backing and I measured off like 10' is all and then tied that to my leadcore so it had a good bite to the reel. I then on the business end have a super small swivel that goes through the guides of the rod then tied to about 15' of 10lb fireline. I also run the suffix advantage leadcore so I don't have to run as much line out as standard leadcore. I also try to run my drags a little on the loose side with this setup as there is very little stretch. I usually turn the bait clickers on, start trolling and back the drags down till they slip and tighten a little from there so you still get a decent hook set. Also note when pulling this stuff it is very speed dependent. The faster you go the shallower your baits will be. The slower you go the deeper they will go. I forced myself to use them a fair amount last year and learned a lot on my own but am by no means a pro. Always fun to fish with someone else so you can pick up on other little things. Good luck and have fun. [/QUOTE]
