Downrigger question

[dubob]

[#800000][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]There is no right/wrong answer as to how deep to run multiple DRs. I fished all 4 of mine at 15 feet deep and all set 30 feet back on Saturday & Sunday at Hyrum this past weekend. Caught a ton of rainbows anywhere from 12" to 17". Kept about 8 for the weekend. Did not have a single tangle all weekend long.If your marking a lot of fish at a specific depth +/- a couple of feet, then run them all at that depth and use the same set back on all of them.[/size][/font][/#800000]

[#800000][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]If the fish are dispersed over 40 feet of water column, then by all means stagger your depths.[/size][/font][/#800000]

[#800000][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]I would also recommend the the longer set back line on either side of the boat should always be the lower line on that side of the boat. I honestly don't think it makes any difference whether its the outside or inside line on that side of the boat. But that's just my opinion based on my own experiences.[/size][/font][/#800000]

[#800000][font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]When I am forced to stack lines on one downrigger, I use the same setback distance for all lines on the same cable.
