1/29/2017 9:04:00 PMHi fishingmom, you must be a cool mom after all you fish! As for rods on the downriggers I use two. One is a Crystal Basin Tackle rod that I really love. It is soft about half way down and then has some back bone to handle the bigger fish. The other downrigger rod I use is a Lamaglass 7' Kokanee rod, great rod too. I use a little heavier rod for the lead core like a medium lite. You want some of the wave action imparted to the fly or lure you are using. Many think it's heresy but I really like 10# power Pro line on the downrigger rods. The rods do the work and I don't loose many fish. I NEVER use snubbers. You are welcome to PM me if you would like more info.
