reef runner trolling

ok so i got a question.  How much deeper do you guys think a reef runner 800 will dive using 20lb fireline vs. using mono?  With and without adding weight.  Any help would be great.

    depends on the diameter of the mono.

    I would bet most RR are trolled with 12-15 lb line. By using 20 you would probably lose 2 or 3 feet.w_w.

    If it has fins and gills, I'm there.

    A RR 800 will dive 28' @ 200' w 10lb mono.......as per reef runner

    My thoughts......

    A RR 800 @ 200' w 20lb mono maybe 23-25'

    A RR 800 @ 200' w 20lb braid maybe 28-30'

    P.S. I shopped all winter for fancy reefs and I was meat fancy all year.
    O'well they sure look snazzy in those tackle trays.
