We don't use our down rigger much, but the best piece of advise I can give is this: Whatever dept you set your down rigger at set the shallow alarm on your fish finder 5-10 feet higher. If the shallow alarm goes off because you're getting into a huge depth variation, you'll have time to start cranking the rig up. You absolutely don't want to get the cannon ball hung up on anything for any reason. Bad things.
