My first Kokanee this year - liketrolling - 04-20-2016

I saw a post about planer boards, I love them
in this you tube you will see me catching one kokanee using them
the other koke was got before I could hook the lure to the board
we did get a catch of a life time we got a Crawdad on the bottom down 110 feet.

Congrats on your first koke. You should have that crawdad mounted.

Great video, especially when out of the dark the Koke's all started showing up.

How about a little more information on how you set up the planer board.

Thanks, Brian

How did you mount the GoPro to the downrigger ball? I have been towing with trying it, but wasn't sure what was the safest method to not lose the camera in the drink.

when we can get on strawberry let me know when you can go
and we will make a video on how I set is up
I put one pole in a rod holder and hook a Wire Duo Lock Snaps to the planer board let it out then use this
Scotty Mini PowerGrip Plus Planer Board Release
http://www.amazon.com/Scotty-PowerGrip-Planer-Board-Release/dp/B00CTOWBWU?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00

and then let the setup and lure slide down to the planer board
if you see me on the water it looks like I'm fishing with more lines out than I should have
The planer board never comes in

ps I bot a AUTOCHART ZLINE Map Card so we need to give each other what me map.

I thought maybe that was how you were setting it up. I have been thinking about giving it a try on Willard, since you showed me how to do it last year on Strawberry.

I think it would be a great idea to do a video on how you do it, to share with others. I would be glad to be the cameraman.

I would also be glad to share AutoChart information with you, all though you would most likely contribute the most, seeing how you get out more often than me.

The first thing you need to do to start mapping a body of water, is set a waypoint as a depth control point, so you can update your map for the changes in water elevation from trip to trip or from year to year.

It's not very hard, I actually just finished mapping Bountiful Pond with contour lines, just for fun and to get use to the software.

Do you use the Otter type boards with an American flag on each, if so I commend you for your patriotism.
