Abstract
An automatic down rigger control system is disclosed for use with a down rigger trolling line operated by a motor for raising and lowering the trolling line. Via the motor, the control system automatically lowers an end of the trolling line to a predetermined depth point and automatically raises the end of the trolling line to a predetermined surface point. Also, a manual operation mode is provided for selectively raising and lowering the trolling line to a depth other than the surface point and predetermined depth point.
