*I love it **enjoyable.fishing** recommend I’m using it for my 1.0 Crankbaits and small Jerkbait. Paired with my Assassin. Works great, feels great. Would definitely recommend this setup.*
Hello Mike, stopping by to say thank you for all the tips. I've been spearfishing all my life and new to trolling, bottom etc fishing. I watched so many videos that even my girlfriend knows how to fish lol. Keep these videos coming...big fan.
Great episode. What did you replace the downrigger wire with? Braid? Are the what is the rod setup for the rods? Mono? Braid? For trolling with bait. What speed for trolling ballyhoo bait?
Yes, braid rather than cable. Rods are rigged with 20 or 30 lb mono. Trolling speed varies but for rigged ballyhoo 4-5 knots. Please join my new streaming channel. 300+ instructional videos, no RU-vid ads, 24/7 fishing helpline. Please visit www.FSFTV.com now! - Capt Mike
*We tried this out finally yesterday and it worked awesome! **enjoyable.fishing** recommend it’s we put it on our 16 foot aluminum boat and trolled with it. We didn’t catch anything but it was still fun and worked awesome! Can’t wait to use this baby again and hopefully reel in a big ole fish! Very easy to install and set up.*
I just got a pair of cannon down riggers. I want to get rid of the wire they came with and put braid,any recommendations what pound braid is best. Thanks.
Sorry for the late response, go with 130 lb or 150 lb. braid. You only need 100 yards on top of the wire so no need to fill the entire spool. Also, I have made a couple modifications to my Cannons. Call me and I will explain. 954.942.7261 - Capt Mike
2020Veritas Chaos 7'0" KC 15-30. It is a composite rod rated for 15-30 lb line. We fish this rod when kite fishing, slow trolling, bottom fishing, etc. Great all around stick! - Capt Mike
Great video guys...I am here locally in boca raton can you recommend a local sales and install Furuno guy I want to upgrade to Furuno finder/plotter and transducer for my CC.
My name is Patrick Bradley I am 13 years old and I was wondering what the best bait for dolphin is when trolling and what color skirt or chugger ect thank u for listing
Its hard to beat a rigged ballyhoo under an Illander type of lure. You can also pull various chuggers and small feathers. Pink, blue/white and orange/black are always productive colors. - Capt Mike

+Florida Sport Fishing one more question my boat does not have down riggers at this time what method would you recommend for get live baits down for slow trolling
Hello Capt Mike Live on pine island florida and getting 46 bertram, have fished the skinny waters and want to get off shore and fish big water and spearfish. Know anyone that would help me get things together. Thanks,Jerry
Jason Luongo If you are looking for an all around. Try a spoon. Jig it. Troll it. Cast it. Put a piece of bait on it. The old time spoon will catch everything. They are cheep too.
