Setting up downriggers for different fish species involves adjusting the depth of your bait or lure to target specific types of fish at their preferred depths. To start, consider the depth at which the target species typically feed. For example, trout are often found at shallower depths, while salmon may be deeper. Adjust the downrigger weight and line length accordingly. Use a fish finder to locate the depth at which the fish are swimming and set your downrigger depth slightly above them. Experiment with different depths until you find the most productive one. Additionally, consider the speed of your boat, as it can affect the depth at which the downrigger operates. Slower speeds will allow the downrigger to achieve greater depths. Lastly, choose baits or lures that are attractive to the specific fish species you are targeting.
