A Trolling Depth Curve shows the relationship of line length to lure depth. The Trolling Angles app lets you create your own depth curve chart for any trolling rig.
A trolled line is very complicated, with many different physical factors controlling its shape. Some of them are:
- boat speed.
- lure, sinker, cannonball weight.
- lure shape affecting diving force and drag.
- line diameter and texture, affecting line drag and lift.
- line angle at each point of the line, affecting drag and lift.
- other tackle such as sinkers, divers, swivels, affecting weight, lift and drag.
- water current.
- water density.
Trolling Angles uses a unique patented method which ignores the values of all these different individual physical factors. It does not try to use physics and mathematics to predict the line shape. Instead, it simply measures line angles and line lengths to determine the final shape of your own actual fishing line.
Trolling Angles does not rely on someone else directly testing, recording, and selling underwater depth data for specific lure and line combinations. Instead, it lets you make your own measurements simply and efficiently.
Trolling Angles implements the most efficient and lowest cost way to generate accurate trolling depth curves.
