@blindsquirrelchannel3853 17 күн бұрын
@@ChadAdams-qm3hs Hi Chad, from what I have noticed, you have to vary your speeds to find what they want on any given day, last Sat 3.0 was the sweet spot, then this Sat seemed 3.2-3.3 was the sweet spot. When the fish are really biting, I have gone up to 4 mph. Also, understand the speed range of the spoons you are pulling, in general the smaller the spoon the slower the speed and the larger the faster. Good luck!

I run the same downriggers as you and need to get deep right now for fish in areas like Folsom & Berryessa. I prefer a fast troll over slow. What size downrigger weight are you using when trolling deep and fast? I have a few pancake weights and they give me hell when I am 50+ feet deep and my boat rolls from a wakeboard boat wake. The weights will drift side to side so much that the downrigger cables get tangled. Thinking about getting cannonball weights and see if they eliminate the drift.
