What trolling speeds should the product be sold for?
Short answer
Speeds in the published sources come in bands. The original Hawaiian Kona heads were trolled at four to six knots.
In detail
Octopus skirts are described as pulsing at six to eight knots. Later head shapes and face angles opened a seven to fifteen knot band, with a slant head tuned at eight knots popping and splashing every five to eight seconds. Higher speeds belong to weighted straight runners and lead bullets built to track straight. Because the window is set by the head, the weight and the skirt together, it belongs on the specification sheet.
