[QUOTE="caver101, post: 111799, member: 1995"] I have never used a downrigger before. Always had good success trolling our umbrella rigs for stripe, but I want to get a little more exact with our depths and thought a simple downrigger would work. I don't plan on going any deeper than 70-80 feet. I am looking at the Connon Mini Troll. I simple clamp on style is all I need. Going on a 1648 weldbuilt. https://www.cannondownriggers.com/products/manual/detail.asp?pg=minitroll This unit will handle a 4lb weight, my boat will troll very slow. Will the 4lb weight be enough to keep one umbrella rig or maybe two live bait rigs at depth when trolling? Anybody got any advice on fishing with downriggers? [/QUOTE]
