we also use that chart,had it laminated,and keep it on the boat,it is very close.i have never seen a chart or any info on how far away from the boat they run,but as you can see in the chart,as the setting goes up,you have to let more line out to achive the same depth,also,as the setting goes up the further away from the boat they run.as a general rule of thumb,we run them on a 2 setting when running copper on boards.if we run 2 per side,we run 1 on a 1.5 setting and the other on a 3,but you have to be very careful on your turns.
egoody,dont give up on them!!!!!!wehad a tough time with them at first and gave up on them after a few tangles,but went back to them and after getting use to them and then catching fish on them,we dont ever go without having them in my spread and even put out 2 per side when they are hot.ive had days when they are the only thing that catches fish.as far as colors,i think with d.d. it is more important to have them running at the proper depth,then color,as we have caught fish on different colors.after loosing a rigger weight early last year,we ran 1 lead color and 1 black and didnt see a difference in catch rate between the 2.
whats even more funny is when i went to take them out of the compartment they were in since the summer the boxes were froze to the bottom,so,they are still new,but not in the boxes anymore.
