Perhaps largest of this century. As the tall ships regalia of 1976 in Newport Rhode Island had ALOT more than what is depicted in the video. Granted it isnt like everyone wants to ge there like it was in 1976
Beautiful.
Strange, they use downriggers for Lake Erie walleye fishing.
Downriggers Are For (Almost) Everybody – In-Fisherman
Pike. Smallmouths. Stripers. Walleyes. Muskies. If one of these is your favorite species, chances are you don’t have any downriggers. That means you’re not catching as many fish as you could be.
Downriggers aren’t just for salmon and trout, but tools for presentation that most anglers can benefit from.
