To get started you really just need 4 rods. I recently just got into trolling in the last year and a half. For downrigger rods I run 8’6” okuma white diamond downrigger rods with the Okuma Ma-30dxt. 25lb trilene big game and a 10’ section of 20lb 100% trilene fluorocarbon. For dipsey rods I run 10’ okuma white diamond dipsey rods with the Okuma Magda Pro Line Counter 30DX Reel. It will hold 1000ft of the 19 strand of torpedo wire. I run the size 5 black chinook divers on the 4 setting. They have much less drag when fighting fish. I run 25lb 100% fluorocarbon from my diver to my paddle. One big thing is swivels. Go quality on the swivels. I really like the dream weaver ball bearing swivels. As for releases, most people use the blacks or the Scotty releases. Both work just fine. meat rigs- I always have luck on the white crushed pearl glow 10” spin doctors with a stud fly meat rig and white head. This has been my top producer when fishing meat. I have tried others, but this one always gets bit. flasher flys- 8” white crushed pearl spin doctor and a mirage fly always gets bit. Just do alot of flasher and fly matching. Keep colors similar. Fly colors I like: green crinkle, stud, mirage, sweet pea, 42nd, green hammer. Spoons the options are endless. Definite wants: Carbon 14 at first light is a must. Still does well on cloudy days during the day as well. nbk Uv mixed veggie stinger gator oranges to run up high on cheaters for steelhead and cohos Rod father sea sick waddler Glow frog martel game over. Honestly there are tons of spoons that work. Whatever you run the most is what you will catch fish on. Any other questions, feel free to reach out. Good luck out there

Another freezer filler today! Had some cool patterning on the legs. Opening day of gun is one of my favorite days of the year. The camaraderie, tradition, texts and chats back and forth with friends, and the deer that get taken all just come together for one great day. Another one in the books and I’m already looking forward to the next one. Congrats to everyone who scored today! I saw a lot of great bucks hit the ground today 💪🏼

Took my best buck to date this morning. Not a giant, but I was shaking after the shot……and that what it’s all about. I made a perfect heart shot at 20 yards. He trotted 15 yards from the shot, stood there for 10 seconds and fell right over. The deer died in less than 45 seconds. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Time to catch a few fish before gun opens.

I have not, but I’m sure if you could keep the blade spinning it would definitely work -
