THIS IS YOUR PROBLEM: P-line absolutely sux. I have used the light stuff for browns and it snaps, and the heavy for kings and even the 30lb is garbage. Throw it away and save $ on lost gear. Big game!! 30-40#
The board looks shiny and new. The switch doesn’t look terrible either. But when power is put to the rigger the switch just makes an internal clicking noise:
Wish I had a crank got to order one. Riggers came with the boat when I bought it 5 years ago. I’ll pull it apart and check for moisture. I did fish in pouring rain yesterday
Fish strikes 110 down 15# weight. I hit the switch as we battle fish. Land it and realize the rigger never came up..... should be at the surface buts still 100 ft down. Tried reset button and other cannon outlets. Nothing. Ended up bringing up by loosening clutch and spinning wheel by hand. Took a break at 40ft to go. After resting for a while I realize the knob is spinning and probe and ball come to surface!? But it still won’t work. Figure maybe voltage issue. After running back to dock it still won’t work tho? Any ideas? Is the board fried?
Shimano tekota 600 reel handle. My reel mysteriously fell apart on the down rigger. Lost the handle and a few small parts to the lake.
