I have a few suggestions. One - I use polymer knot on all my connections. My basic line is 17lb clear and I use a high quality flurocarbon leader about six foot. Poor Richards has the good stuff. (don't get Vanish). Another thing is to make sure your drag is set loose enough so you can easily pull line out with your hand but tight enough that it will not play out when your trolling. I used level line baitcast reels with line counters. I always have the clickers on when trolling because you can hear the fish rip line right away.
I troll shallow in the fall. I will troll anywhere from 5ft to 20 ft. deep. The shallower the shorter I run the plug back. 5ft I will usually run 20-25ft back. Hope this helps
