Guess I’m having a hard time following. I dip using a 10-12’ rod and keep the rod tip down close to the water. Whatever direction tip of my rod is, is where my line is. I use 15lb white braid. I don’t use anything more than 20lbs over the year. White, pink and yellow are my favorite colors which all I can see. K9 and Mad Fishing all have different color hi vis braid.
