Nope, you were given good info. Down riggers are not needed right now. If your trolling live bait (preferably smelt) go SLOW, 1 MPH max! If your using lead, one to two colors max should be good, keep trolling speed around 2 MPH with spoons or streamers and you should be O.K. Use only flourocarbon as your leader and use plenty at least 50'.
Good luck!!
