Saltwater HB lure trolling query

[1337]

G'day fellas,

Just wondering, in general, which one handles faster trolling speeds better; shallower or deeper running HB lures ?

I think its more a size thing. If you want to go faster you go bigger - things like the Rapala CD 14 or 18.

Every lure will handle a different speed , not only depth .
You can get shallow lures that handle high speeds , just as you can that will not .

Most good lures will say the speed and depth they troll at on the back of the pack .

As Gunna said , i too usually troll with big rapala CD's......I also use others like lively lures Blue Pilly ( awesome lure ), even the halco laser pro's do good , but the deep diving bent bibs really don't handle a bitof pace.


what are planning on chasing ?

Thanks for the reply guys,

Should have stated that for lures of the same size. Don't have anything really in mind but was just wondering when looking at a few lures the other day. Say for example, the halco scorpion 150 range with 3 bib configs. which version will handle trolling faster. Is it safe to assume the shallowest running one will handle/blow out less when trolling fast?
