Not sure about browns but for erie most guys use a medium action rods 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 and a size 17 or 27 or similar reel. Braid or mono I personally run braid on everything with no pronlems. I'm a big fan of diawa wilderness rods for 20 bucks they hold up well. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
2 manual downriggers with double rod holders and spooled with wire. Everything works, boom can move back and forth and is about 23 inches to base. 100 for the pair or trade for accudepth 47. Will ship if buyer pays shipping. 440 522 5940 Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Thanks everyone I sure appreciate all the info and will hope to return the favor.. ik gonna see what used stuff I can scrounge through the winter ti get me going Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Thanks I'm thinking I'll try to set up 2 wire rods thisbyear and run 2 braided dipsys and work my way up from there Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Gotcha thanks. I guess I could always sell my 17s and upgrade to 47s to recoup some money and double them as walleye rods.. Would 4 braid dipsy setups be acceptable with 2 rigger rod or is wire that much better for a few trips a year. I was thinkin a mag dipsy on braid I could maybe get down deeper on the inside rod with a #1 dipsy on the outside above it Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Thanks for the help and pointers. I'm more comfortable running dipsies over boards. I think my plans are going to be keep the rods I have with 27s for 2 riggers and 2 dipsy rods then get a pair of bugger reels with wire for a mag size dipsy for a 6 rod spread? This will only require 2 new set ups and we can run the wire on erie for late season walleye Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Coming from ohio and set up to troll walleye out of a 20 ft crestliner authority. And this is what I have. 4 mh rods with accudepth 27s spooled with power pro 4 m rods with 17s also with power pro Assortment of dipsies and spoons Set of riggers. I'm wanting to get started and thinking I could sell the 17s to upgrade to accudepth 47s with power pro and at least run 4 dipsies off the medium heavy rods. Could I get by with running 2 of the 27s off the down riggers for a 6 rod spread? There manual so I may or may not end up using them starting out I think 4 rigger rods might be just as effective with less tangles. 2ndly should I stick with just spoons or invest in a few spin doctors and flys and meat rigs. Looks like I should be able to get off a long weekend end of July. Thanks everyone. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
