Dragging a bunch of mono with giant weights on it near the lure certainly won't produce much in my opinion.

Spend the $12.00 and buy some lead core at AJ's, add 75' of proper leader and enjoy your day fishing and most likely catching something...

Wow! I guess I need to re-do my trolling reels. (Bass Pro set them up when I bought the reels)
I have about 20 ft of leader and as I realized today when letting out a bunch of colors...NO BACKING! I quickly reeled in a few colors and tried trolling shallower for "anything" with no success...
Thanks for the tips!
