Seriously!! Most recently, I’m using a downrigger with a cannon ball and like this set up a lot. It’s easier pulling up the weight over the planer, especially while moving. Now clips and rubber bands makes so you don’t ever have to bring it up, but you are stuck with the depth you put it at. So . . . .
How long is your leader?
When done right, the deepest bait is often the most hit…
I would follow sellsfish’s word, he’s been known to catch a fish or two…
