I finally upgraded my downrigger and the cable was audibly vibrating. Despite a very lively looking day on the sound, all I could manage was a 2 pounder and a shaker. I suspect the fish didn't like the sound. I'm upgrading to braided downrigger line ASAP!
Please comment below if you have good luck with vibrating cables. I've heard they can bring in fish, but that was NOT my experience this day.
Edited: a big thank you to @rayz671 for commenting about the safety hazard associated with kayaking with a steel downrigger cable. That completely slipped my mind.
