After reading all this, I sure am glad that I have four Traxtech riggers on my boat! Turn the unit on, drop the weight in & set zero at the surface, key in the depth you want to go to & hit auto down, (unit has slow down start & stop), if you want to go up key in the depth you want & hit auto up, done fishing hit auto up & the weight comes up quickly with slow down for the last 5 feet. Four flawless years on them now. good luck to all john

Rol, So, how long are you gonna keep the secret? good luck john

Marty, How much for this rig? tks, John

ds There are a number of riggers that can easily handle 20LB rigger weights, I have owned two brands that do, Bigjon, & my current riggers Traxtech, so, I don't understand your comment on Cannon? John

Is the fish cleaning station open?

Captain Mike; pretty expensive for 40 feet of pipe with a few cross pieces welded in, where are the rod holders & radar dome mount base? How about $500?? John

77 Agree w/minion have been using the palomar for the last ten years with zero problems! Good luck! John

WT; I have 18' of Traxstech tracks on my boat, & I like them the best. Good luck John

64; This is very common, & it has been happening for the last 30 years I have been Spring King fishing. Is this your first Spring experience? Rd, What caused you to loose half of your salmon? John

X2, that side of the isle is a 5 alarm dumpster fire for sure!

Jj; I put the probe on my second deepest rigger, to keep track of the thermocline, I don't believe it is necessary to run a dedicated rigger just for the probe. Combine your probe reading (temp & speed) with the marks on the graph. Sometimes the fish are way out of temperature, so you will be fishing above the thermocline. The Hawk gives you a place to set the lines when there are no marks on the graph. Tight lines John

B O E; If I could only pack two things it would be NK’s and Pro Trolls with Atomic Live Flys!. Good Luck; John

A C; Agree w/Leg on the placement of the weight (basically one rod length from the lure) , however I use rubber core sinkers because they don't nick/pinch the line. good luck! John

YT; Very nice looking fish w/ happy fishermen. Waiting for you to post the first KING landed of this new season, good luck! John

HU7; These guys got a couple dozen hot spoons for me during Spring derby fishing several years ago (two day turnaround). They really helped us out. I still use them when fishing the West end of the lake! Good luck! John
