How do I specify the diving depth?
Short answer
As a number with a method. State the maximum depth, the line class used to reach it and the retrieve speed, because a minnow tracks deeper on a faster retrieve and shallower on a slow one.
In detail
A depth quoted without those two conditions is not a specification anyone can check.
The numbers behind this answer
| Field | What it decides | What it changes in the order |
|---|---|---|
| Diving depth and lip | How deep the lure runs and how it deflects off cover | Set by the lip angle and length together with the internal weighting - it cannot be quoted from a length alone |
