- In this video @Russell’s Fishing Tech explains the pump handle setup and why this will help put more big kings in your boat.

Wow! Awesome video. Thank you!!
Good video. I have been doing this same basic setup for years but with Dive Bombs as I feel they are easier to work with than having the lead flying around.
Can't wait to try
Good stuff, Russell!
Thank you very much
Great info as always!
Thank you
Great info thanks
Thanks Russ, I'm going to be set up your way this coming year.
Really happy to help
Bought bunch of them torpedo weights when gander mountain went under for pennies on the dollar .. Thought id use them off the leadcore when i need it deeper never thought about running them like this .. Intreasting
Great info again Russell!! What length and action of rods do recommend on those larger boards using those size of weights? Thanks!
Hi Russell, Great video. Would you mind putting links to the items you mentioned in this video? thanks!
Great Video Russell, i have a bunch of 8 and 12 once lead balls and am going to give this a try next season. Would it be possible to give an approx depth that these setups would reach with line let out 50,100 and 150 on 50 lb braid. Thx
there isn't a depth chart for these. with that said dont focus so much on a depth just focus on repetition
Great video as always Russell. Do you need some waves for this to work optimally or will it work on a relatively flat lake (assuming we have one of those on Lake Michigan)?
Works in all conditions!
Can you run pump handle rigs of big boards with sliding release clips or are they only for use with in-line boards like the larger SST Pro Mags? I'm trying to decide between big boards and in-line boards when I rig up my boat for fishing this spring. Is there a "weight limit" that you would recommend for weight size on pump handles or other set ups like weighted steel, copper or lead core for big boards or would you just go with in-line boards all together. My only experience with planer boards (about 25 years) is with big boards on Lake Superior but never on my own boat.
Do you stick with the same weight, per side of the boat, and just let out more line? Or can you run say an 8-ounce on the outside board and a 12-ounce weight on the inside board?
Say you also wanted to use these for browns down 30 to 40ft what size balls would you run instead of 150coppers?
Is there a dive chart available? I have looked to no avail. I understand it’s only a starting point. I have seen the 50/50 charts but that doesn’t coincide with the 17’ lead Russel mentions.
What do you use for storage of the weights???
How do you deploy these with a DD in the water already?
Is there a benefit to running 6 Pump Handles vs 2 Leadcore, 2 dipsy Rods and 2 on downriggers? I see how this will enable you to zero in on the strike zone without having to use a lot of different gear. I was just wondering if I needed these on top of the Leadcore, dipsy rods and downriggers I already have.
Thanks.
No the pumps is more of a better option for small boats then weighted lines. You can cover more of the column with pumps
Russ, could you clarify the distance of line behind the boards? You said if you are running three 8 oz balls on one side you would have them 70-90-110 feet back. Is the 70 feet back from the inside or the outside board? Thanks.
Outside shallowest line always to the outside deepest always to the inside
Russell, I think what Laurie Knapp wants to know is how far from your weight to the board. Am I correct? When I setup, my outside board is spoon,50 ft to 1 Oz snap weight ,50 ft to planer board. Chart says 1oz,2ft line 1 ft depth. 25 ft down. What I would like to know is say on a 300 copper rig how far from your copper knot to at your backing to the board?
Hi Russell, Is there a specific reason for the mono between the weights and the clips? I've always just hooked my weights directly to the clip and I'm wondering if I should change.
easier to grab out of the air
@@RussellsFishingTech Ah that makes sense. We do struggle occasionally to get ahold of them. Thanks for all the great tips. The videos are always very helpful!
Great job- How do you let these out with divers?
Straight out the back of the boat. Let the board fall back then increase the tension so it pulls to the side
@@RussellsFishingTech Thanks for responding
what trolling speeds work best for this set up.
Any speed you find the fish want at that time. I prefer 1.8-2.2 for kings
I have a question and it’s probably a dumb question.. but say I Spool a real with 10 colors do I have to always fish all of those 10 colors or is it possible to say only put out six colors clip on your planer board and fish it like that?
Generally you let all the lead or copper out yes as copper or lead rubbing against Line guides while fishing will damage it
@@RussellsFishingTech okay thanks. That’s what I figured but wasn’t positive.. I think I’ll just run the snap weights lol seems way more versatile
Would Offshore OR12 boards pull 8oz pumps far enough out or are the larger boards required for this?
Need the larger ones
@@RussellsFishingTech thanks for the reply. Are you setting the bigger boards up to release (Sam's Pro Release) or to stay connected?
Release
Is it not recommended to run those torpedos in front of say two colors of leadcore?
You absolutely can do that
Can I run them off of dipsy divers or do you recommend boards to run them off of??
Prefer off boards or off the side of boat in place of a dipsy
@@RussellsFishingTech so they angle out like a dipsy??
No they run straight down but we ran them years ago off the side of the boat. I think they excel on boards
@@RussellsFishingTech ok wasn’t sure. I met the owner of Torpedo in a store once and he showed me them and said to run them off a dipsy. I never tried it but now I’m curious. I’m not too comfortable running boards but will give them a shot
They will work on a dipsy but he used to make a dipsy that they hooked to its since been discontinued
Do you sell the weights?
yes
Okay I will be ordering some, thank you!
What is a "copper"?
Check out my video on copper
What is the name of your shop?
The Reel Shot Sheboygan
@@RussellsFishingTech thanks! Great Videos !
