GIANT BFT PLANER ROD SET UP-VIDEO - Page 5

bisquit · 01-31-2009, 12:45 PM

I finally got to view the video! Now your GBFT Rigging Seminar makes more sense than ever--I had never seen the technique actually employed on the water.

Question: Do you just know from experience how long to let out your line for a particular depth?

I'm sure you told us at the Seminar, but I'm old (and stupid) and don't remember...so be nice to your elders!

Great video!!!!

WAHOONBOX · 01-31-2009, 01:26 PM

PURPOSELY I HAVE REFRAINED SOMEWHAT OF ANSWERING SOME QUESTIONS FROM THOSE WHO HAVE WATCHED THIS VIDEO

I WILL NOT BE ANSWERING QUESTIONS ON THE THEATRE SITE....THAT IS WHAT WE DO SO WELL HERE IN THE WORLD....SO BRING QUESTIONS TO SFC....THAT SITE IS USED ONLY TO HOST MY HI-DEF MESS TEMPORARILY

BUT ONE QUESTION SEEMS TO KEEP POPPING UP about: "HOW DO I MEASURE OUT JUST HOW FAR TO LET THE BAIT PUT AND THE PLANER OUT

SOME CREWS USE A LINE COUNTER...COOL.

ME

.....THE BAIT ROD ITSELF: WELL....PRIOR TO FISHING I ACTUALLY MEASURE OUT DOCKSIDE THE DESIRED DISTANCEFROM RUBBERBAND ANCHOR POINT TO THE HOOK...I CLOVE HITCH A PIECE OF 30 LB FLOSS IN PLACE VERY GENTLY....

THE PLANER ROD:.....I PRE-MEASURE OUT 150 FT FROM THE OLD SALTY 32 OR 24....AND MARK MY LINE WITH A SHARPIE

IN 50 FT OF WATER......MY PLANER WILL NOW BUMP THE BOTTOM AT 3.9-4.2 KNOTS AS EVIDENCED IN THIS PHOTO-NOTE THE ROCK /SHELL EMBEDMENT

.....SO .....NOW INCREASE A FEW RPM'S TO 4.5 KNOTS AND THE OLD SALTY WILL RISE UP A BIT

ONCE YOU HAVE SET A PLANER BAIT.....AND AFTER YOU HAVE RETRIEVE IT ONE TIME....YOU CAN OBSERVE THE REELS SPOOL AND ACTUALLY SEE WHERE YOU STOPPED THE LINE....ONCE THE "HUMP" IS GONE FROM THE LINE ON THE SPOOL YOU ARE THERE!

*********** IMPORTANT NOTE*********

THE FARTHER YOU PLACE YOUR BAIT BEHIND THE OLD SALTY.....WILL FORCE THE PLANER TO RISE EVEN HIGHER JUST FROM THE DRAG FORCE ON THE MAINLINE, LURE ITSELF

THIS IS NOT A THEORY....THIS IS COMMON SENSE TESTED AND TRIAL'D & ERR'D......

GO BACK TO THE 3.9 SPEED.....PUT YOU PLANER DOWN TIL YOU FEEL IT BUMP......MARK YOUR LINE NOW! .....NOW RETREIEVE YOUR OLD SALTY ....INSTALL YOUR BAIT ROD AND RUBBERBAND ...MAINTAIN SAME 3.9 KTS....AND LET OUT AN ADDITIONAL 100FT OF YOUR PREVIOUS DESIRED BAIT DISTANCE......

AH HA!!!! TOLD YOU! THE PLANER WILL O LONGER BUMP BOTTOM....THE DRAG FROM THE EXTRA M,AINLINE IS PULLING HARDER ON THE PLANER FORCING IT TO RISE

THE DESIRED DEPTH OF YOUR DEEPER PLANER IS : ON THE FREAKING BOTTOM

THIS IS JUST MY WAY AND NOT THE ONLY WAY.

I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN ONE PLANER IS DEEP AND ONE MID RANGE ON THE OTHER SIDE....THAT BOAT TURNS TOWARDS THE DEEP PLANER SIDE ARE MORE APT TO NOT TANGLE THE PLANER BAITS....NOTHING IS 100%

MOST PLANER TANGLES HAPPEN FROM A FAT ALBERT HANGING UP ON A $5 BAIT AND THE RUBBERBAND NOT BREAKING....WHICH IS NORMAL....THAT WILL CAUSE A SERIOUS HEADACHE TO CREW AND WALLET!!!

AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!!! Thanks Box! Its a lot less complicated than I thought. Nothing like seeing it to open your eyes.

Hopefully you know how much I appreciate your world. I enjoy it every day and try to, at the very least, comment, give thanks where its due, and start a thread or two that I think will be helpful to this community. There may even be a report with a pic every once in a blue moon .... next year, hopefully twice every blue moon

Thanks again!
