Started fishing a couple of hears ago but new to electric downriggers last year. It seems sometimes when I drop my line after hooking onto the downrigger the leader tangles itself back up with the line back towards the downrigger line. Most often i can tell as the line starts jumping around as if there is a fish on the line from the flasher running sideways under the water. I have tried to slow down the lowering of the rigger and speeding it up but it just seems to happen too often to me and its frustrating. Any thoughts as to what I might be doing wrong. Let me know if you need anymore information. thanks for all your help!
