Wow - that looks like it would do some real damage on chinook. Have you thought about painting the eyes red?

update for this morning
was fishing at daybreak
weedy problem was not that bad today
interesting thing was hit 3 springs deep [210]on a plug, released 2 then took a 18
switched over to coho gear up top on the way home hit a plus 20 at 125 ft on a small spoon
lost him at the boat as he wrapped my downrigger line, joys of solo fishing, was going to be released anyway, but he got one of my best spoons, damn.

how far out are you guys running your plugs from the release clip

That depends on how deep you are fishing. Plugs on the bottom don’t need to be out far off the release clip. We start with about 15 to 20 then go up from there. I find that Salmon are not boat shy like Interior/ big lake fishing trout and char.

Now that we're all 'plugged in'
Out yesterday for the evening. Managed a small 10/12lbs that I released boatside on an army truck hootchie. 185/230 north hump. Coho a plenty too.
Anyone ever done business with that guy at the orange bridge who sells gear at the little flea market they have on sunday? I've heard of several down rigger thefts in the PQB area recently and have seen him with some DR's for sale. Not accusing him, but also don't want to buy stolen gear.

Another criminal I think you can catch. You should place a bug on him and follow him with binoculars for a week or two. See if you can bust him. I also doubt he’s paying taxes on his stolen downriggers so you should notify CRA immediately, if not sooner.
It also could be that they were “bargain buys” and he was one of those losers who waited outside the store all night to buy them. Likely while smoking pot.
You got this!
Edit: he’s probably just a lying fisherman, and they are not Scotty downriggers, they are Shotty downriggers. Please stick to reports.
