10/19/2019 12:08:23 PMGlad you had success. You mentioned 12-15 feet deep on the down riggers. So were you out 2-1/2 colors on the leaded line? I love using leaded line too. I use it all the time over here on the west side in a lake thats about 22 feet deep. I fish down around 16 feet deep. I mostly use two colors/40 foot leader/old goat lure and it works great. I hope to come fish Roosevelt just before Thanksgiving. I've never fished it at that time. Can you give me a suggestion as to what part of the lake might produce best at that time. Thank you. Denny

10/20/2019 6:25:24 AMDon't go by colors, use line counter reels, but do know that's approximately 2 1/2 - 3 colors. Have posted here many times, 150' out which includes 50' fluorocarbon leader. Depth is also dependent on speed, which in my case is most always 2.5mph or better. Recommendations would really depend where you'll be launching from and how far you're willing to travel on the water.
