Share Your Innovations - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

This version fits both the PA and Outback and was made for quick installation/removal without drilling any holes in the kayak.

The beauty of the Cannon downrigger is that it can be lowered and raised with one hand incrementally. Periodically while the fish is running, my left-hand reaches back and cranks up the weight -- 2ft/crank to have it up and clear before the fish starts circling under the kayak.

The DR serves double duty as a descending device for our of-season barotrama fish.

The base is made out of cutting boards, PVC pipe, and stainless steel hardware.
