Downrigger advice

[D_Luck]

Thanks for everyone's input, sounds like the opinions are pretty varied out there. In the end I went with a Cannon Uni-Troll that was on clearance at cabelas, I wanted to look at some scotty's and penn's but cannon was all they had in stock and I got the display one so it ran me 157 bucks.

I am gonna put braid and a snubber on it, does anyone know how to do the voltage box deal (not even sure what it's called) maybe would not be an issue with braid?

Thanks again folks
