ZWing Downrigger Planer Boards

Great engineering has finally been applied to deep water fishing. Everyone knows the benefits of using downriggers for all species of gamefish. Fish spend more time in deep water than they do splashing the surface. Downriggers are a great investment in better fishing success, but they do have some drawbacks. Chief among these is the darn downrigger weight. They are a lethal nuisance, bouncing around on a boat. They also drift back considerably from the boat while trolling. So, while you have 100 feet of line out, your downrigger ball may only be 40 feet under. The Z-Wing cures the big downsides of downrigger use. Nekton’s Z-Wing uses a proven hydrodynamic design to put you in complete control of both depth and lateral location of your line. You can maintain your depth and consistent tracking over your range of trolling speeds without having to adjust weights or cable. Downrigging just got a lot easier, and that will make your fishing more productive! (Available in black) The heavier 350, 3.5 lb wing performs at all trolling speeds.
