[QUOTE="scrotcaster, post: 176587, member: 884"] I recently acquired a manual Big John downrigger and now in the process of figuring out how to use it..lol.. I plan on using it for sakakwea salmon. Have a few question for the more experienced - What size weight ball would be the best to use? -Kinda worried about snagging the weight on something and taking off the side of my boat.lol .. any tips? -What kind of release/clips are most user friendly? -Has anyone had success using downrigger for walleyes? -What kind of baits/lure typically use ? Please feel free to share ur setup and what i works for you, or anything might be helpful to a newbie downrigger. Thanks for any and all info [/QUOTE]
