Thank you for the replies so far. I will be trolling different baits and I realize once you get down past a certain depth there will always be some degree of blowback depending on several factors. I want to "minimize" this effect as much as possible and wondered what most guys are running. I will probably just go with the 12lb since its the same price as a 10lb and I don't see any cons to running a 12lb vs a 10lb.
