How To Troll With Planers: The Three Methods Fully Explained! CATCH MORE FISH!!! Offshore Fishing
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 พ.ค. 2024
- Planer fishing is one of the best methods for filling the coolers full of fish on your boat. There's a reason commercial fisherman and fishing charter captains consistently use planers as a way to get their clients on fish. These are the three methods explained the best I could explain them. Planer fishing is often associated with catching King Mackerel and Wahoo. While this is very true and a very effective way to catch these fish you will bycatch everything in the sea trolling with planers. I have personally caught mahi mahi, blackfin tuna, cobia and even grouper trolling with planers.
First method: In line planer attached to main line with hand lining required
Second method: In line planer with quick release system to remove planer and continue fighting the fish with the rod and reel
Third method: Poor Mans Downrigger. Planer runs off a boat cleat and you fish a separate rod and reel secured to the planer line with a snap swivel and a rubber band
I know from experience that you will catch more fish and add a very productive backup fishing plan to your arsenal if you ever need to use it. I mention in the video that I never leave the house without my planers and that's the truth. PLANER FISHING WORKS!!!
Video links on how to make the poor mans down rigger and how to make the quick release system will be coming soon to this description and to my channel so please keep an eye out for it if it's not already here and I will try my best to finish these videos asap. Thank you so much and please remember to hit that subscribe button. I need your help to grow!

I’m subscribing because you said funner.. I fish Lake Erie but love watching this man. I don’t need no grammar people bothering me, this is my safe space
Haha thanks
Excellent, well thought out video! Thanks Scott.
Wow just seeing this out of the box th-cam.com/users/postUgkxQr1yd4Zc6qJF-scTB6Zb9dQbVpviuRxB recommend I have yet to fish with this set up, but based on the first hands on appeal, I can tell this is going to change the way i pack and carry to a whole new level. If you fish like i do, you know the smaller and less stuff the better. I’ve added a photo of just some of my gear so you can see how serious i am about fishing.
I like the second setup. Good job!
Absolutely fantastic content. Great work and thank you. Subscribed!
*Love St. Croix enjoyable.fishing recommend . Great action. Very enjoyable rod to use. I matched it with a Quantium Catalyst reel and together it works great. *
Thanks Scott, great video. Just getting started at this I will be watching more of your videos for sure!

Scott thank you for your expertise loved the 3rd cleat method...keep up the great job!
Great video!I love how you explain all methods .
Thanks so much!
Well done! Thanks!
EXCELLENT! Much appreciated.
By far the most informative and clear-cut video I've ever seen on planer fishing. I'm a veteran salt water fisherman including inline planer fishing, but have never used a cleated planer. I'm visual and had to see it done. Man you really laid it out perfectly. Thanks so much!
Thanks for the great feedback. The cleated planer is such a great method once you get it down
@@ScottBonnerOutdoors Instead of a swivel you can use a paper clip. Both work great
Excellent! Quickly got into it!
Thank you
YOU FINALLY GOT A BOAT !!!! 🙏🏻

Best explanation I’ve seen on using planers, great video from a new subscriber.
Awesome thanks for subscribing. I’m planning on putting out lots of videos in the future
Hi mate I have been fishing all my life I have never heard of this type of trolling before it is all new to me I know about down riggers
I must say that your video is very informative for anyone who does boat fishing especially trolling the way you explain this method of trolling and how it can be done 3 different ways using the same jig set up not only do you explain the jig set up you also explain how to deploy the jig in water without tangling it around your motor
You gave a very good informative description of your boat speed as well as reel setting for drag during this time jig deployment I am sure that is something a lot people would not be aware of and will find very informative to know
I know I have learnt something new hear myself and I hope to use this sydney harbour soon thanks for your video great work
Awesome video nice and clear explanation. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Love this Video it was so informative you really took time to explain everything very thoroughly I had watched a couple other videos and there was pieces missing and with yours and explained everything and I love how you went through all methods which I never had heard of any of these so when I came upon planer fishing I was researching it and then got your video which has been so awesome I will definitely share your video and keep subscribed and looking forward to more videos
Thank you so much!
You explain so much better than most! Enough information without repeating and getting boring, thanks!
Wow, thanks!
Great video!! I'm very excited to try planers
Thank you! Definitely try it
Nice job ladies❤❤❤❤❤ very thorough! True anglers and well done!
Amazing channel! Happy to subscribe and like 👍🏻👍🏻
I appreciate that. More videos coming soon
Good video on planers. I have been fishing for over 50 years and a Master Operator
Captain for 40 years, but did know about the last method that is very simple & easy way to troll a planer. I especially like the fact it can be used with spinning equipment, that is way sportier way to catch fish than conventional gear. Good luck with your channel, wish it was available when I was younger. Capt. Bill
Thanks for the great comment. I appreciate it. Method 3 is my favorite because of the spinning gear. I fish for fun above all other reasons
I'm in Queensland Australia and I fish for Spanish Mackeral ( King Mackeral to Americans ) I only use spin gear now, a Shimano Sedona 4000 reel and 6 foot Daiawa Aird rod with 30lb braid to 60lb mono leader, it's the most fun way to fish now with plenty of huge fish caught on such light gear
Thanks man. This vid was very helpful
No problem glad it helped
You made this look easier than snook fishing. And that says a lot. Very well done!
Thanks a lot!
Awesome detailed video. Keep it up 👍

i recently went on a fishing charter and used planers for the first time, didnt quite understand it , i watched your video and you couldnt have explained it any better... thanks for the info!!
Well explained, I like the poor man system for wahoo myself. Liked & subscribed
Thanks a lot man
Great vidro
Thanks for the comment
Excellent. That really has taken the confusion out of this planer method. Many thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
The last method is the reason why I had to subscribe. Excellent thought and really great, simple, methodical approach.
Thank you I appreciate that
Very well Explained. thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
I consider myself a beginner/intermediate level offshore fisherman - recently I went out with an expert buddy who was running skirted ballyhoo on planers and we crushed mahi with it. I tried to get him to explain it (he used technique #3) but I couldn't quite grasp what he meant. This video not only explains PERFECTLY what he did, but two other methods I wasn't aware of. Excellent video man, subscribed! Tight lines from Hawaii 🤙🏽
Thanks a lot. I also run planers for mahi and it works great. Most people just run surface lures and they are missing out on some nice fish
I do like the fact that you have notes (even if they are one your cell phone) so you make sure you are giving people correct information. Good video
I actually wasn't reading notes I was looking at my phone to make sure the camera is recording me through the GoPro app
Thanks mate, I will be incorporating that cleated method into my fishing on Australia's east coast and hopefully it will save me the added expense of a,downrigger, definitely earned a sub and best of luck in the future.. 👍👍🇦🇺
Earned a sub? Yea ok clown. Who the hell do you think you are?
Its 1 am looking for planar pointers before going out in a few hours ty for the great demo
No problem thanks for watching
Good work man
Thank you!
Thanks, very useful.
Glad to hear that!
Very informative, I recently purchased a new boat and plan to try your techniques. Thank you very much for taking the time to make this video...
Awesome! Good luck out there
Cool video. I nee to planner fishing found it very informative. Fish on brother.
Glad it was helpful!
Bin looking for this kind of info for awhile. I use rubber bands for marlin fishing, so this came easy.
Thank you for the video, I tried and it's work for bottom species also
Awesome thanks for letting me know! Yes this works great for trolling shallow water grouper too and other species
Excellent video!! I'm a newbie, and I've been watching videos about planers - all of which require hand-lining in the last 50-100ft of leader! I thought a bridle system was the only way to allow for a quick release reel-in leader system, but this SEPARATE cleat-mounted system takes the cigar!!!!!! Thank you! Now if I could just figure out all the knots you used to tie all this stuff together..... (not sure if I need it for your #3 setup (mainline,, mono, wire leader?) , but I did buy a crimping tool and crimps for 100lb mono). I will subscribe if you have all this stuff on your channel.
I use the uni knot and crimps mostly. Thank you for watching!
Thanks for teaching us...just subd.
Awesome, thank you!
Good job 👏, awesome
Thank you!
Very clear and informative, thanks you! I grew up offshore trolling with my grandpa as a kid but it’s been so long that I am pretty much a beginner again. Nice to have some to the point and easy to understand videos! Seems like a every other “tutorial/tips” videos are just dudes showing off fish lol
Thanks a lot for the great comment. I tried my best to be clear and to the point
Really good info Scott, and well put across. Been a charter skipper for 30 years, but haven’t used planers until recently, as a replacement for a downrigger. I would encourage the use of a leader wheel that allows for clipping on your lure before feeding it out by hand, as 3 times, I have seen a fish grab a lure fed out that way, before being attached, during a hot bite and it was bye bye lure. Keep up the good work and good luck with your chanel
Thanks for the tip that makes a lot of sense
