Jim dorrance Posted March 22, 2017 Report Posted March 22, 2017 How Deep Can someone tell me how deep 300' of 8 strand copper will take me?
Sea mist Posted March 22, 2017 Report Posted March 22, 2017 Too deep lol. I run that for salmon and I'm not positive but I think it will run around 65' with a spoon so even deeper with a crank bait. I've used 50' of 30# in Erie in 24fow with mini diver and spoon and worked great 1
Smoke-n-Finn Posted March 22, 2017 Report Posted March 22, 2017 How Deep Can someone tell me how deep 300' of 8 strand copper will take me?Totally depends how fast you will be going. Believe it is close to 60' at 2.5mph. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk 1

Hillbilly old man Posted March 28, 2017 Report Posted March 28, 2017 I run 300 copper with a 60 foot leader for salmon and find 22 feet per 100 or 66 feet for 300 , 88 feet for 400 etc.
Puking Dog Posted April 29, 2018 Report Posted April 29, 2018 You could invest in a fish hawk td and then you will know exactly plus water temp profile every 5 feet. My brother in law has one and they work great. I'm buying one this summer for my boat.
