[. . . ] Introduction to Controlled Depth Fishing Undoubtedly there are many fishermen familiar with the methods and use of controlled depth fishing. During the mid 1960's the state of Michigan introduced Pacific salmon into the Great lakes in an attempt to revitalize its sport fishing industry. From this successful transplant, new fishing techniques and equipment were developed. one such method was controlled depth fishing which enabled fishermen to place a lure at a desired depth by utilizing downriggers. [. . . ] Use the trolling weight insulators supplied with your downrigger. This insulates your weight from the positive charge on the cable. This will also ensure that the trolling weight will stop at water level when retrieved. The cable on your downrigger should be replaced every 2 years. etching of the cable can weaken it physically and electrically. In saltwater, make sure the sacrificial zincs are replaced when half dissolved. This ensures that the boat will run with a neutral or slightly positive charge. Clean zincs on a regular basis with a non-corrosive brush. Always make sure the boat is properly grounded to the water. This will help ensure proper PIC voltage on the cable and that the Short Stop will function properly. Be sure to measure the battery voltage of your boat. adjusting the Depth Meter The Cannon Depth Meter provides non-slip accuracy , plus easy resetting. To reset, just slide the meter away from the reel until the gears are disengaged. The Short Stop system is composed of three critical components: the electronic unit, the reel set screw, and the trolling weight insulator. While the downrigger cable is in the water, there is a minute electrical current that flows between the cable and the grounded metal boat components in the water. When the cable clears the water, this current flow will stop. The Short Stop system senses this interruption and turns off the motor. The trolling weight insulator is used to break the cable contact to the water while the weight is still in the water. The reel set screw allows the circuit path to be made through the structure of the downrigger. NOTE: It may be necessary to use two trolling weight insulators. Stopping the weight at water level eliminates the cable strain caused by bouncing weights or weights hitting the boom end. Stopping at water level will also keep the weight from hitting the boat hull.
