I purchased the book "Downrigger Fishing Techniques" by Dick Pool (I highly recommend the book) and in there it explains how to test the electrical charge around ones boat. I found out that I am putting out 1.1 volts into the water. According to Dick Pool, if one is significantly outside of the range of .7 volts and .8 volts they are likely repelling fish, rather than attracting them. I would assume that 1.1 volts is a concern, but I'm not positive. Has anyone had any experience with this situation, and do you concur with the author's findings?
