Default Rooster tail on 27 Mag

Do any of yall throw a rooster tail with our boats. Currently i have twin 454's and trs drives. the props i have on it now are not all that at all. I have a set of 26 inch choppers from my action. What do i have to do to throw out a rooster tail, besides triming the drive. Thanks in advance

We had a 27' Sport (1974) with 454's and TRS Drives (27' Mirage props with added cup) = no rooster tail, and we raised the drives to the rub rail.

You won't get a rooster tail with TRS drives...unless you're twisting 5000 rpms going 30 mph with the drives WAY out. An over trimmed bravo or a surface piercing drive will get you a rooster tail.
