- I finally upgraded my downrigger and the cable was audibly vibrating. Despite a very lively looking day on the sound, all I could manage was a 2 pounder and a shaker. I suspect the fish didn't like the sound. I'm upgrading to braided downrigger line ASAP!
Please comment below if you have good luck with vibrating cables. I've heard they can bring in fish, but that was NOT my experience this day.
Edited: a big thank you to @rayz671 for commenting about the safety hazard associated with kayaking with a steel downrigger cable. That completely slipped my mind.

Thank you for the content!!! Recently found your channel and love your videos. Just got my first fishing kayak this year. Appreciate the content you create and your thoughtfulness around doing the right thing!
Thank you! Stay safe out there. Hope to see you on the water. Feel free to say hi if I’m around!
You always look so comfy in that kayak! Wish mine was decked out like yours. Heading out into Area 10 today Brem/Silverdale Dyes Inlet to take a look...
Thanks! I just made the couple mods I mentioned in the video. Good luck out there! Stay safe
For kayak, you should replace with braid. You'll have a hard time cutting that cable if you needed to in an emergency
Good point. Thanks for commenting. I wasn’t even considering snagging because I was going for coho. But I can say steel downrigger cable won’t be on my kayak ever again.
@narwhaladventures if u snag it, or happen to flip and it gets wrapped around a leg or arm 😵
Braid will fix that issue.
Marked a lot of fish today at shilshole but not many biters
It can be like that. Very frustrating. Thanks for the comments. Hope to see you out there.
