intense bite!

I love weighted steel over copper.  I have many reels of both but I seam to always grab the WS first.  They both sink to equal depths - I know this because I measured it with Smart Troll probes.  Copper wanders more like leadcore but I just like the way it runs in and out of the reel.  Bloody Nose on WS - I can see you running that set up many more times in the future.  Congrats on the 23# king.

Thanks for answering my burning question of weighted steel. The sink rate. I love how it comes off the reel also as well as how easy it is to untangle. Catch rate hasn’t changed either.
