I got some bomber-like lures at an auction the other day and i am trying to figure out how deep they will dive at 1 mph for trolling walleye. They have large bills on them so i assume they will dive deep. Is there any type of equation (example: 1/2 inch of bill for 10 feet of depth) to help me figure this out. I live on lake erie and lure depth can be critical! THANX!
Large bills will dive deeper, but wobble harder too.
I use a Rapala and put a slip sinker very Small on the top bill through the line. It doesn't interfere with your action and you get more depth.
I have also drilled a 1/4 in che hole just adjacent behind the bill underneath the Rapala about 1/4 inch deep. Then melted some lead and poured it in there. That works real good.
