  2020, Trolling Planers for Big Boat Driving

  When trolling with planers behind a big boat or sport yacht, you really need to understand the relationship between your speed over ground, what the current does to your speed and how best to manage your planers when making a turn to get back on a school of fish. Let's say you are trolling with the current when you start getting good sounder markings or you get a bite. What is the best course for turning back to cover that patch of water again? Your first thought has to be how do you accommodate the long planer. You also have to consider the fact that as you make a turn into the current, your relative boat speed will slow. You may need to bump up your rpm level to maintain that same speed. How fast where you going when you got that bite? How deep are the fish you are marking? These are important considerations for the boat driver when trolling with planers. So, if you mark fish and need to turn back, be sure that you keep the long planer on the outside of your turn. The interesting insights shared in this planer fishing video are good food for thought. You really need to think about what is discussed here and try and apply it as you start your day trolling with planers. Everyday is different. One day the fish may be more triggered to bite a bait moving a little faster and the next it may be at a slightly slower speed. The fish will not always be at the same depth, so you don't want to drag baits over their heads. Use your electronics to measure where the fish and get baits down to them, at the speed required to trigger bites. Fish smarter and catch more.
