There's an excellent reason why Cannon® downriggers have changed the way hundreds of thousands of anglers fish: Cannon downriggers allow you to place the right lure at the right depth at the right time -- and keep it there until a fish strikes.

Cannon downriggers present your lure in a way that tantalizes the fish into striking. The catching of the fish is up to you. You have to have the patience, or the finesse, or, in the case of a lake trout, simply the strength to continue hoisting until you haul the fish up from the depths.

The Power of Positive Fishing

On the West Coast, anglers are talking about a startling discovery: Fish are attracted to a positive field of ions in the water. The strategy for success, according to the book, "Secrets of Fishing with Electricity" by Ollie Rode, is to create a positive field of ions around your boat to enhance your fishing. But there's a catch. Many boat and tackle combinations create a negative ion field.

The ace in the hole for many Northwest anglers has been various homemade devices to surround their fishing lures with a positive field of ions.

Now we've made things easier for anglers everywhere -- by equipping Cannon electric downriggers with the means to create and maintain a positive field of ions. You can spend your time reeling in the fish that strike the lures being trolled by your highly positive Cannon downriggers.
When you use Cannon downriggers in combination with a Bottom Line Sidefinder, you can look off to the sides of your boat to spot surface running fish, shallow water fish, and deep cruising fish at the same time.
Cannon downriggers take your offerings to the depth of your choice, then hold them there. When a fish strikes, your line releases from the weight and you play the fish, just as though there was no weight at all.

Cannon electric downriggers set up a positive field of ions around your boat to attract more fish.
