SC 8/5

 Heading out to SC tomorrow chasing salmon, gonna trying out the new downrigger set up on the AI. Any takers?

I might be out there, but there's probably no way I could keep pace with you. In any case, I'd like to hear how your downrigger works out. It looks like a great setup.

Pretty sure ill be out there on tuesday

I hope it went well and I'm a PVC nut as well. I've had the pvc cement fail before so SS screws are great as a backup (1/4-1/2" screws at the connection points).

Any additional info on the downrigger? It looks like an awesome setup.

Thanks for the tips Hai, I used really high grade epoxy, but I understand your point with reenforcing the PVC at connection points. As for the DR it worked great I just need to add a rubber grommet to where the PVC meets the yak to protect it from vibration.

new ride! so, how did it go?
