I've mine in 22-27m range Casa and am in the same zone as yourself, have had healthy pulls each time for 2 weeks now. We've six pots of which 1 or 2 I use for trial and error in different depths etc. One noticeable thing is that on 1 lump that I share with a thousand other pots, I've a pot that sits off that same lump by about 40-50m all on its lonesome and it's been kicking butt. It would account for over 50% of my total catch at present. Was thinking of swinging them more behind GI more so than Carnac. It would be interesting to get some other feedback on this area. There's plenty to go around though that's for sure.
