Video on How to Use a Planer

After many email requests on clarification on how to use a planer, I decided to make this quick video to help you better understand how to fish with a planer and a few key notes that will help you to be successful when trolling. Key notes:
  • The clearer the water the longer the leader.
  • The larger the planer the longer the leader.
  • Use ball bearing swivels to attach planer.
  • Troll between 1100 to 1500 RPMs for best results.
  • Power Pro and braided lines will help achieve optimal depths.
  •  If you aren't occasionally tripping the planer, then you aren't close enough to the bottom.

Great video. Thanks for showing equipment and ways that they can be used. Some things I want to try someday.
