Metal Line for Trolling for Lake Trout
The better method of deep-trolling consists in using fifty to one hundred yards of braided copper wire line on a trolling rod of suitable weight and dimensions. In this way you avoid using the heavy sinker—a thorough spoil-sport—necessary with the linen line as the weight of the metal line sinks it sufficiently deep. This line is made of a number of fine strands of copper wire braided over a silk core and should not be confused with the inferior solid copper wire lines. The braided copper line spools well on the reel, does not easily kink, and even if the latter does occur is not liable to part at the kink, no one of which things may be said for the ordinary solid copper line. Braided copper line may be had in fifty-yard spools and in two sizes, E and F, of which the smaller is the best to use in lakes of moderate depth. Size E should be used in very deep waters.
