Forgive my greeness but are they referring to the downrigger line when they say to attatch 6-8 flashers to the deep line or is that something else

Cheers,

Yes they are ... but am quite sure you don't need that many...I never run more than 2 / downrigger line and am quite successful.

Keep asking questions...that's how intelligent people learn!

Run one off your downrigger cannon ball connection with about a 10 foot leader.
Go up about 15 feet and connect your first rod on
Then up about another 15 feet and connect your second rod on.
Do the other side the same way 4 rods 6 flashers.
Then get ready for the gong show. LOL.
It takes awhile to get it sorted out.
Works well though.

I assume you are talking about Sockeye rigs, d-money?


Personally I like the bottom dummy flashers off the cannonball to be 8" flashers with about a 3 ft leader or I will use one of those Delta revolving flashers rigged short the same way. That way you can get your bottom rods closer to the flasher action without tangling. The rod flashers are clipped in tight too....about 3 or 4ft. from the d-rigger line. The closer together everything is , the better it works for Sockeye.

I like to run the deep rods "outside" and the shallow rods "inside"....if you know what I mean. Works better for me that way anyway.

That's if you're talking about Sockeye.....
