Thread: Longlining Master plan

I'm with you on the speed chart. With the different weights on each line, no baits will be in the same depth water. One or two rods will be where the fish are, all the rest will be under or well above them.

Draw the chart out for Remus and me because you know the blue attack minnows pull our boats in search of fish!

Never tried that before Brett. Might just work. Keep us posted.

My drawing is as detailed as I will get. Weight hits bottom, that’s too low, WIND UP!
Fish hit 1/16 jigs on wings, WIND UP!
Oldfish nearby, IGNORE ALL BITES TILL HE IS GONE

He actually had the size right on the fish, very very small. Couldn't help myself, ������

Inky, you’re correct of course, it will take some adjusting and experimenting.
There is an advantage to different depths initially. Getting bites on the rods with X weight would tell me where they are.
Of course, it’s very possible to run all at the same depth, just vary the amount of line.
Might be worth a try, maybe not.
If I do it I will post

Now I’m thinking those removable (rubber center) weight s might be the best approach

I bet these suckers would spin like crazy long lining
