Precision Trolling Data
Precision Trolling Data, LLC is an independent company that documents the diving depth of popular fishing lures such as crankbaits and also common trolling hardware such as diving planers and also sinking lines like lead core. Precision Trolling Data uses highly trained scuba divers and sophisticated scuba techniques to actually observe lures and trolling gear as they are functioning underwater!
Depth Data in your Pocket
At PTD we go underwater to literally get a “fish’s view” of popular trolling products. The goal of this rather unique research is to determine exactly how deep various lures and trolling gear will dive based on key variables such as lead length, trolling speed and line diameter. In turn, avid anglers can use this data to literally aim their favorite baits and trolling gear at fish they locate with the help of modern sonar.
The data collected by Precision Trolling Data, LLC is sold as a mobile device app available for both iPhone and Android users. The data collected by Precision Trolling Data is in turn sold by Apple and Google at their app stores respectively.

FAQ
Q: Why does the app i purchased only have 2 line types plus tbe 50+2 method to select from?
A: Every lure and trolling device in the PTD app is painstakingly tested on specific line types to create the most accurate information possible. This process is time consuming and labor intensive. To test all the common line diameters and types would be impractical if not impossible. That stated, you do have other line options to consider. For example, the 10lbXT that we use in testing is .014 in diameter. Other lines such as 12# Berkeley Big Game or 14# Berkeley Sensation are also .014 in diameter. Sunline, a co polymer line in 16# test is also .014. It’s also important to know that 40# braid is also .014. So you do have a multitude of line options to choose from. Thank you for purchasing the PTD app.

Most of the Precision Trolling Data customers are walleye anglers, but the data provided by the PTD apps is also widely in use for other s...It would seems that an algorithm could be created with line diameter ? I’m sure this angle has been approached just curious of the results ?
I think including the diameter of the line in it's description would be a useful value add instead of leaving us to try and research sometimes conflicting data on a specific lines diameter
Love and use the app every trip. After all the lines are set, it is fun to review the lure you have on to adjust up or down according to what you see on the graph. Exact is exact! Thanks for a great product.
I cant find 10/4 fireline on this bomber
Would be tough to fish without PTD. Keep up the good work
What I tell guys when telling them to buy the app I'd its a great starting point. It will get you very close. Then fine tune from there. Especially when currentscare involved
Thank you all for the tremendous effort this must take to gather to help us be better fisherman.
One of the best $110 investments I've ever made for fishing🐟💪
The best damn app ever!!! Thank you.

How to navigate the Precision Trolling Data app.
The Precision Trolling Data phone app is the most comprehensive trolling app on the market. Based on actual underwater observation of trolling lures and hardware, the PTD app provides a wealth of invaluable trolling data and is available for both Android and iPhone cell phones. youtu.be/HRFsppATOq4
Great asset and tool
The Precision Trolling Data “Crappie Version” features all the Dive Curve data commonly used by anglers who pull jigs for open water walleye. With the help of this simple to use phone app, anglers can determine exactly how much line to play out and how fast to troll to target crappie and other species using jigs.
50 Plus 2 Method
Because the 50 Plus 2 method is depth data based on using specific diving crankbait models, a two ounce trolling weight, a fixed lead length, varying dropper lengths and two different trolling speeds there are no “substitutions” in this information. The 50 Plus 2 Method starts by selecting a bait with Snap Weight data and letting that lure back the designated 50 foot as a fixed leader. Next the two ounce OST Guppy Weight is attached to the line. Next the angler can play out additional “dropper leads” up to 100 feet of dropper lead or a total lead of 150 feet back. The “dropper lead” is the secondary lead length played out after the Snap Weight is added to the line. Lastly, anglers can choose from two trolling speeds including 1.5 MPH and 2.5 MPH. Other trolling speeds will be added as time allows. A list of lures that include the 50 Plus 2 Method can be found in the List section on the App.
