Myself and two others are going to try this set up this Sat,weather permitting.Myself,using a #0 dipsy with my 7' ugly stick,and my ABU 6600 round reel. Two guest have line counters and #1 dipsy's.9' rods as well.
The charts that come with them give you a fairly good idea with line out and how deep.This is mostly based on 20lb mono.
However,I will be using braid,8/30 power pro to dipsy,12" snubber and 9' of 15lb fluro leader.
Would anyone know what the drop distance would be using 8/30 braid instead of 20lb mono?.The chart says 275'line out for 40' down.In your experience how much further down would I be using that scale as a guide with braid of course?.
Or do I use a lot less line out because of the no stretch issue?.Just a guide or your personal experience using braid or wire lines..I will upgrade my gear as needed,just a test so far,that's why I purchased the smaller #0 dipsy.
Thanks as always for your help.
Dave.
