Captain Mike, absolutely fantastic videos, you're a fantastic presenter and teacher.. you could probably make any subject interesting.. I've been fishing for a few decades, and find your videos packed with new or different methods that I haven't tried. I really love your idea of the three way on the down rigger line, and the 4' leader down to the weight.. makes so much sense.. if you can, I'd love to know which three ways and swivels you use for this setup. I fish the Great Lakes, primarily Lake Michigan, chase king salmon, trout, and have found to like heavy 15 lb weights on my riggers.. all the best!

Great video. A lot of useful information. Only thing disagree with is his comment about the electric downrigger only benefit is that it brings your ball up automatically. The benefit not mentioned is that if you hook the downrigg and connect it to your fish finder system you can have your electric downrigg target the exact depth that you are seeing the fish..rather than manually adjusting. So basically you can adjust faster and the faster you adjust the higher your percentage to land the fish.

Mike I know this is an older video now, but this was just awesome! I've got it in my head to try a test run of live slow trolling a big bait down the water column fr yellowfin next time I'm over to the Bahamas. Maybe a little football Bonita. I've got it in my head that the Tuna are still willing to eat during the middle of the day, but they only come to the surface when the light is low. Maybe it will be different if we go to them.

Tremendous seminar. Which line on the reels would you troll with the downriggers? Braid? Mono? How would attach the mono or braid to 12’ fluorocarbon leader? Another Albright? Friday is the big day for kings. I was thinking of using the pancake weights with the downriggers to help with resistance and blowback. What do you think? Will the Z wings stay more vertical when trolling higher speeds to 6 knots? Been watch you for months. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Capt. Mike. I have been following along your seminar series. Big thank you for putting out this content. I watch the videos 2 or 3 times while taking notes on everything you say so that I can apply it. I was rewatching the planer video and you mentioned that you went through 3 or 4 iterations of custom builds before you were happy with your set up. Can you explain to me how you got to your current set up? More specifically can you also explain how you concluded on an 8 foot rod length. I always thought that the conventional length for a heavier rod was shorter on the 6’ range. So when you said 8’ I got curious as to the reason for your selection. Hope to continue the conversation, thank you!
@FloridaSportFishing6 жыл бұрын
8'0" is the right length for us. these are not bent butt rods but rather straight butt. The longer rod offers a shock absorbing factor and also makes seeing short strikes much more noticeable. Rod needs to be beefy, pulling planers up to #8 at up to 10 knots puts serious strain on tackle. Anything less will ultimately fail. More detailed in, call me. 954.942.7261 - Capt Mike

Excellent Video Capt. Mike. Question : So I've got my bait connected to my 100ft of monofilament leader, connected to a bridle onto my 80lb braid main line. The planer is connected between the bridle. At about 4-6 knots, how much braid (main Line should be let out for the long line and how much for the short line? (Basically asking how far behind the boat should the BAIT be in each scenario)? Thank you.

@@FloridaSportFishing Thank you. My Friend bought me a No 32 Size Planer (sigh)-It's very big AND Heavy - WOW! Currently my trolling rod I've rigged for planers is fitted with 80lb Braid and my leader is 100ft of 100lb monofilament leader (or 60lb Fluorocarbon). However, I can just imagine the force and pressure that's going to be exerted on the No 32 size is going to be TREMENDOUS...Somehow I believe that the 80lb braid is too light. Is it? or should I use a higher test braided main line, 100 or 200lb??? Thank you in advance.

I rig my planner on a bridal rig it is much safer instead of reeling to the planner and hand lining it in u simply reel in the planner and u put 2 loops in your line and the planner has 2 double snap swivel and u unclip the planner then fight the fish with the rod no hand lining no yoyo just let ur line out to the 2 loops clip your planner on and your ready to set your planner again plus no big coil of line on the deck u just reel it in on ur reel much faster amd safer

Yes, the bridle system is an excellent alternative but must be rigged perfectly, if the loops aren't correct it won't trip so we decided to go the traditional way for this show...thanks for watching. - Capt Mike
