Hybrid M+G 10/26 on LH

Funny jimmy we do things different but in a lot way way somewhat the same and on different budgets for sure. I went from four planers and a down rigger to the four downlines and two planners so I can turn tighter and stay on the fish much like you hoover on them. I also mark the spot when I hit the fish, I just use a marker buoy instead of a way-point on the gps. (way-point on gps is way above my pay-grade) I then just keep turning on the buoy and try to keep track of where they move with sonar. It's near impossible to find the same spot in the middle of a lake without a marker of some sort. I have used way-points, but find chucking the buoy like a grenade when a fish hits is more fun for me and simpler. Wait I think I just hit on a new technique. (anybody got any grenades)

totally agree Phil, its just a little tweak to the same idea and style. I saw most of the guys down there with downriggers fishing 15ft and higher,and just see no need for it, much easier ways in my opinion. Some of the guys that hammer them up here in LH have a ratty old tin and a dinosaur motor, they prob laugh when they see me go by and call me a fool......And yeah u dont need all the crap I got, Im just lazy and dont wanna deal with an anchor or throwing markers, I just wanna fish and relax. Hell Im ready to just build a little pond and stock it so I dont have to get in my truck and launch a boat anymore LOL
