Part 1-6 Rod Spread

[@MGMarineTech]

Hands down best videos for new guys to the sport! Thanks for the great content

[@bruin-ruin]

I just got started late last summer and it's good to know that based on your recommendations, I did pretty well on my rod and reel choices. Thanks for the info.

[@andrewkenny742]

I'm just sneaking out in a 15' boat on calm days not too far offshore. I run a fish hawk x2 off my single manual rigger, and a wire deep diver on the other side. Then I have a slide diver and a regular dipsy diver for high divers, and my two board rods. I've now accumulated a 10 color, 250 copper, and a 3 color plus a few weights. A lot of options for my 6 rods makes fishing very versatile for me. Love your videos and tips Russ, I wouldn't be where I am at now without you.

Great info. I'm coming from AZ to fish this summer. A lot of great and pertinent info. Great Job.

If you need anything let me know

Wow , Great presentation Russell, looking forward to hitting the water. What about purchasing a rod combo that's already set up/ dedicated to either planer's or Down rigger's. I've been using walleye rods with heavier line. Very limited success. Recently I got a fish hawk from you, about a month ago. Now I working on getting line and presentations right. I can spend $ . I'm trying to put it in the right equipment this Time. 🎣alot of weekend trips with 1 or 2 fish or skunked altogher.

Great video, Thanks!

[@MikeLehmann1]

Russell can you suggest the ideal downrigger weight size for Lake MI ?

[@drewwojciechowski1561]

Crazy my most productive rod are my down riggers. Ive only caught a handful on my wire dipys and then my second most productive is my 300 copper on planer board. Maybe im doing something wrong on my wire setup?

[@kevinoleniczak8323]

Good info, but what to get if fishing with a single rod from a sailboat on the lake? Okuma cold water 303d with which okuma rod and line?

[@stevenbohren2588]

Old video I know but I wonder if you could suggest what lures to start with on a 6 or 8 rod spread. I run a 2 color, 5 color, a dipsey and a downrigger on each side. Sometimes I run a low diver and high diver if I pull one of the lead cores. Thanks in advance,

[@Mark-dj5qf]

Thanks for the explanation! Very good info! If using a set of Downriggers should the be your deepest rods? Thank you

[@RussellsFishingTech]

No they should be in the section of water your targeting. A lot of times I do have one rigger as my deepest rod but not always

[@Mark-dj5qf]

Thank you!

[@megamike4357]

What are your thoughts on diawa sealine reels. 47s for downriggers, and dipsy rods. 57s for leadcore?

[@snomofilms]

Great video

[@leonwarden6878]

You didnt mention what weight rod action? Med? Med/heavy? Heavy?

[@Jayr2374]

Do you have to use braid for a pump handle ?

[@barrybonesteel9235]

[@RussellsFishingTech]

[@barrybonesteel9235]

Okuma Convector or cold water. Is what id be choseing from for agood salmon reel

[@tomsieczkarek3828]

Great info thank you!

[@toddcarl1779]

Can the Okuma pro classic rod double for a walleye planer board rid also?

[@RussellsFishingTech]

too stiff for that

[@dalewestfall3504]

Would you suggest the same setup for walleye fishing?

[@RussellsFishingTech]

Walleye fishing is a diffent animal 20 size reel

[@milanstaron1537]

Can we place an order for reel and your store can prespool with line?

[@RussellsFishingTech]

Call 9203952079

[@donpidhoresky1396]

what is your online tackle store?

[@alramos7054]

Thanks for another great video Russell. What size and how many yards of mono backing do you spool onto a 303D reel and how many yards of 50Lb braid for salmon fishing?

[@clyderichardson6475]

The easies way is to take all the line off one of your rigger reels (you were going to put fresh line on it anyway) or an old Penn 209 reel. Then you can reverse load it to get it filled perfectly. Then just reel it back onto the cv30.

[@paulcunningham9167]

I have 200 m of 50lb braid on a clarion with 6 colours of 45 lb leadcore

[@EricFoy-e5i]

Had a couple questions if you could help thanks🙏🏻🎣

[@nickb8618]

Downriggers suck unless the fish are deeper later in the season. Much more productive with wire divers and 150, 200 coppers and 6-10 leadcores early when fishing 6-9 rods

[@tomarmstrong3611]

Absolutely awesome! Thanks for the video Starting to get set up and that answers a LOT of questions. Do you have a telephone number for orders? Or is it on line only?

[@RussellsFishingTech]

no please feel free to call 9203952079 if you want to chat about details and get set up

[@flickboogers4244]

Enjoy the overstocking. Fishing is horrible in Michigan. Oh well
