downriggers
Deep fishing devices
Downriggers are devices used in fishing to lower a lure or bait to a specific depth.
A weighted cable extends from a boom mounted on the boat, with a release clip that holds the fishing line at the desired depth until a fish strikes.
We set the downriggers at forty feet to target lake trout.
The system allows precise depth control impossible with conventional tackle alone.
