TPinTC Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I am new to fishing with downriggers. What size trolling weight and type of line release would i need? I am starting with electric Cannon downriggers. Any help would be appreciated. I am fishing the East Grand Traverse Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBD Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Ten pounders are good, twelves are better. Shape is up for endless debate. I run 10# fish as they're easier to handle and store and don't roll around and track as well as 12# round balls. For spoons I like Offshore Medium tension downrigger releases. For attractors I run Blacks (actually Dubro brand's version) releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
