[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 777576, member: 12443"] ive had considerable experience with downriggers in both fresh and salt water. for what your doing and the speeds you will be using the 10# would be fine. even heavier for those depths would be good. of coarse the heavier the weight and the faster you move the more strain on everything so keep that in mind. in salt water trolling speeds are much higher. the z wing weights work better for that but even those can be problematic. they work on the same principle as planers. i keep 1 manual penn on the boat now while the cannon mag 10s are gathering dust.
