In-Line Planers...
1. Bring your boat to trolling speed. Then
let your lure out to the desired fishing
distance behind the boat. Once your lure
is out to the desired distance, set the drag
clicker on your reel to prevent it from
free-spooling. Then place your fishing
rod in the rod holder.
2. Take hold of the fishing line and clip
the swivel clip (at the back of the planer)
around the line (as shown in drawing A).
Then, attach the line release to the
fishing line, ahead of the swivel clip
(as shown in drawing B).
3. Remove your fishing rod from the rod
holder and place the planer in the water.
Keep your rod tip high and let out line
until the planer moves out to the desired
distance from the boat.
NOTE:
The maximum distance that an
in-line planer will move away from a
boat is governed by the height of the
fishing rod’s tip. This makes longer
fishing rods desirable when fishing
with in-line planers.
4. When the in-line planer has reaches
the desired distance from the boat, set
the drag clicker on your reel to prevent
it from free-spooling. Then, place the
fishing rod in the front rod holder. Set
the rod holder to hold the fishing rod
straight up to keep the rod tip as high
as possible. This will allow the planer to
gain the greatest distance from the boat.
Next, repeat steps 1 through 4 with the
fishing rod in the rear rod holding. Then
follow the same procedure for the rods
on the opposite side of the boat.
