Clarkspoon Diving Planer – Size 2

The Clarkspoon Diving Planers are highly effective and well-constructed tools designed to help you control your trolling depth at any speed. To use them, simply attach your main line to the brass ring and your leader to the hole in the blade. Then, lower the weighted end of the planer into the water at a downward angle, allowing it to dive. This is especially useful when trolling with lightweight lures like spoons or jigs that don't dive on their own. When a fish strikes, the planer will trip and return to the surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I attach the planer to my fishing line?

To attach the planer to your fishing line, simply tie your main line to the brass ring on the planer. Then, tie your leader to the hole in the blade. This will ensure a secure connection and proper functionality of the planer.

What is the purpose of using a planer when trolling?

The main purpose of using a planer when trolling is to control the depth at which your lures are fishing. Planers allow you to fish at different depths, even with lightweight lures that don't dive on their own. This can greatly increase your chances of catching fish, especially in different water conditions.

How does the planer trip when a fish strikes?

When a fish strikes your bait or lure, the planer will trip and return to the surface. This is because the force and movement of the fish's bite will cause the planer to release and rise to the top. This tripping action alerts you to the presence of a fish and allows you to reel it in.

Can the planer be used with any type of fishing line?

Yes, the planer can be used with any type of fishing line. Whether you prefer monofilament, fluorocarbon, or braided line, the planer will work effectively. Just make sure to properly tie the line to the planer to ensure a secure connection.
