Product Overview
Introduction to Controlled Depth Fishing
Undoubtedly there are many fi shermen familiar
with the methods and use of controlled depth fi shing. During the mid 1960’s the state of Michigan introduced Pacifi c salmon into the Great Lakes in an attempt to revitalize its sport fi shing industry. From this successful transplant, new fi shing techniques and equipment were developed. One such method was controlled depth fi shing which enabled fi shermen to place a lure at a desired depth by utilizing downriggers. Because of the varying factors (water temperature, thermocline, weather, tides, time of day, or time of year) it is necessary for successful fi shing to maintain specifi c water depths that coincide with fi sh movements and feeding patterns.
One essential feature of the downrigger is the depth meter or gauge that indicates lure depth. This allows the angler to control as well as return to specifi c depths where fi sh have been caught. Due to the success of controlled depth fi shing, downriggers are now being used throughout the world to catch a wide variety of species in both fresh and salt water. Whether fi shing for blues off Rhode Island, walleyes in Lake Erie, sailfi sh off the coast of Florida, or stripers in Tennessee, the use of downriggers will make your fi shing more successful and more enjoyable.

2. Boom This is used to extend the weight out from the body of the downrigger and has a pulley fi xed to its end. Boom lengths range from 24 to 53 inches. Boom is a fi xed 24 inches on the Magnum 5 ST model.
3. Swivel Head This relays the cable at the end of the boom to lower the weight.
4. Cable This connects to the weight. Cable material is 150 lb. test stainless steel cable.
5. Toggle Switch This controls the power to the downrigger, up and down.
6. Mounting Base This attaches to the boat, enabling you to place the downrigger where you choose.

Installation
Arrows Indicate
Typical Mounting
Locations
Installing the Base on Your Boat Decks up to 7/16” thick
Where access to the underside of the deck is not available, the mounting base can be mounted using wellnuts. Use the base as a template to mark locations and drill four wellnut clearance holes. Mount the base using four 1/4-20 x 1-1/2” truss head screws and four wellnuts. Tighten the screws so the wellnuts are fi rmly compressed as pictured.
Decks thicker than 7/16”
For decks thicker than 7/16”, or where the under­side of the deck is accessible, mount the base with screws, nuts, and washers. Use the base as a template to mark the locations and drill four 9/32” holes. Use four 1/4-20 x 2” truss head screws and four each fl at wash- ers and nuts. Fasten the base to the deck as pictured. NOTE: Wellnuts SHOULD NOT be used on decks thicker than 7/16”.
Decks up to 7/16” Thick
Decks Thicker Than 7/16” Thick
Downrigger Mounting on Boats
A downrigger should be mounted wherever it is easy to operate and observe. You want to be able to see your fi shing rod and to react quickly. So, choosing a good location to mount your downrigger on your boat is very important. Due to the great variety of boats available, mount­ing your downrigger can be a diffi cult decision. Cannon has a complete line of mounting and fi shing accesso- ries to aid in your fi shing experience. Before making any permanent changes to your boat consider what accessories might be used in your application.

Installation
Decks thinner than 1/4”
Use a Cannon deck plate (PN 2200693) to prevent defl ection and add stability to decks thinner than 1/4”. Use the deck plate as a template to mark the hole locations.
If access to the underside of the deck is not
available, the deck plate can be mounted using screws and wellnuts. Use the deck plate as a template to mark locations and drill 4 wellnut clearance holes. Use four 1/4-20 x 1-1/2” fl at head screws and four wellnuts to mount deck plate. Tighten the screws so the wellnuts are fi rmly compressed. Where the underside is accessible, the deck plate can be mounted using screws, nuts, and washers. Drill 9/32” holes. Use four 1/4-20 x 1-1/2” fl at head screws, nuts and washers (fl at and lock). Fasten plate to deck. To secure the mounting base to the deckplate use four 1/4-20 x 1” truss head screws.
NOTE: When using the telescopic boom, we strongly recommend the use of a deck plate on all boats to provide adequate stability for the downrigger.
The Low-Profi le Swivel Base mounting follows the same procedure as for the deck plate except that four 1/4”-20 x 1-1/2” truss head screws are used to fasten the mounting base and four additional 1/4”-20 x 2” truss head screws fi x the swivel base to the boat deck.

REMOVABLE SPOOL COVER
Your new downrigger comes with a removable spool cover. By removing this cover, you are able to gain easy access to your spooled cable and easy spool removal. This feature allows you to easily ac­cess tangled line, get it repaired and get you back into action quickly.
This feature also allows you to have multiple reels for different types of line. By purchasing additional reels, you can wind each with a different type of cable (i.e. Uncoated cable, Coated Cable, Mono, etc.). This allows you to switch out desired cables quickly and easily.
NOTE: Remove all tension from the line before re­moving or replacing the spool.
Follow the below steps to remove the side cover:
1) Loosen and remove the clutch knob. Turn the clutch knob clockwise until it is free of the motor shaft. (Figures 13 & 14)
2) Loosen the two 1/4-20 Phillips head screws on op­posite sides on the cover. (Figure 15)
NOTE: Screws are captured in the cover and will not come out completely.
3) Remove the cover and you now have complete ac­cess to the spool. (Figures 16 & 17)
4) Reassemble by reversing the above steps.
NOTE: Take care when removing the spool over open water so that the clutch pad or clutch disk doesn’t get pulled off as well. (Figure 17)
WARNING: Do not touch the cable reel while the downrigger is in use.

ATTACHING THE ROD HOLDER(S)
The locking rod holder(s) incorporate a locking tooth design which can be easily adjusted every 15° with the soft grip knob. The symmetrical design will allow mount­ing of the rod holder on either side of the downrigger or two rod holders at the same time. The unique two piece design allows independent adjustment of the rod holder and the rod holder arm in two axes. (Figure 19)
Caution: This rod holder is intended for use of up to 30 lb. test line only and is not recommended for use with any tackle IGFA (International Game Fish Association) rated higher than 30 lb. A safety strap (not included) is recommended for all applications.
NOTE: The rod holder assembly is not covered under warranty when used with tackle above 30 lbs. Equipment placed in the rod holders and the loss thereof is the responsibility of the user and is in no way warranted by Johnson Outdoors, Inc. Mounting must be in accordance with the above instructions and pictures to comply with the product warranty.
To install the rod holder(s):
1) Fasten rod holder to rod holder elbow using supplied spring and knob.
2 ) Attach the rod holder to the downrigger on either side using the supplied spring and knob. (Figure 20)
3) Repeat the above steps for the other side if (2) rod holders are to be mounted.
The rod holders can be adjusted by loosening either knob until the locking teeth are free from each other. Rotate the rod holder or arm to the desired position and re-tighten knob. (Figure 21)
REPLACING THE CLUTCH PAD
To replace the clutch pad, follow the steps for removing the spool. Once the spool is removed, you have access to the clutch pad. (Figure 18) Simply pull it off the shaft and replace. Reassemble the spool and cover in the reverse order.
