WOW greg... I just watched ALL your videos they were awesome!!!! Clearly your a frickin expert at fishing for the flat kind and i appreciate you taking the time to respond! I have a few local spots with very large sandy areas where I feel i could effectively use a down rigger without too much risk of hanging up. I just have very little experience with fishing deeper water than 40 feet and am unsure of how much weight it would take on any given day to effectively fish a drift and i figured the downrigger would eliminate that problem.. Maybe you guys can give me some general pointers for drifting without a downrigger for halibut. When it comes to rigs Im not looking for complicated right now I just want to master the basics. Im tempted to just start with something like a reverse dropper loop or a regular dropper loop while drifting just to minimize the chance of tangling on the drop. Is there any general rules when it comes to how much weight to use? am i trying to keep my line vertical during the drift or more of a 45 degree angle? I know these questions seem pretty dumb but not being able to get out there and figure this out for myself has my brain running in circles....OCD is a Biotch!!
