When trolling, why don't you ensure reeling in the slack before picking up the rods? Just wondering, great fishing, I still have yet to put a king on the board this year, hopefully soon.
When the rod goes off (board, dipsey diver) there is no slack in it, however often a downrigger bite - if you watch it go off and grab it right away) there will be slack to pick up.
The leader length on mine is pretty long at 15 feet, however you can certainly shorten the leader for cohos. I'm just lazy and run the same leader as I do for kings (which are more picky with leader length). An 8 to 10 foot leader of 25lb mono would be just fine!
They are vented covers, haven't had any increase in engine temp since I started using them (I keep a close eye on temp with my Mercury smart craft gages). They keep the cowlings protected from customers who smack baits/rods/gear into the motors
You need a fish billy! Whack em across the top of the head while they’re still in the net to stun and calm. It’s not worth the tangles or at worst, a treble buried in a hand.
Keep it coming, good job. The fish look bigger this year.
Your back!
Nicely done guys
Cool video dude, that is gonna be some really good eating!!
Heading up there in 2 weeks. Watching your videos has me all JUICED UP and ready to catch some Jar Lickers
So awesome love your content. Keep it coming
Should have seen the size of cohos back in the late 60’s, early 70’s. They averaged bigger than what a lot of kings are today.
What's a "giant" one for Millwaukee?
What sonar system r u running
What reel and how much lb line use?
Fun video - nice job - I want to do that!

Look for me I call the boat the putt-putt. Senor citizens having fun and going home drinking beer and eating fish.

Why do you have covers on your motors ?? Don't they run hotter with covers ??

Peanut fly might be smashed but once it gets bit in the mouth it gets amino’s on it from the fish and turns not to eat by other fish. Great video
Nice video man! What’s your speed?
Thank you! We were running 2.2 to 2.5 mph. Since we had all of our gear in the top 20 feet of water, the GPS speed worked just fine
Awesome video. Keep the videos coming!
