My Canon downrigger has a very strong buzz coming up from the wire through
the whole unit. I know this is acceptable and a common problem and the fish
can't hear it but I can. Any one have a way to quiet this down. I have tried
rubber pads between the downrigger and the mount but not much change.

Are you using coated wire or straight SS?

The coated wire will quiet down the buzz - you will still hear it but
it won't be as annoying.

I've never actually gotten rid of the buzz entirely.
