Nice instructional video. I have a couple small yellow planer boards I picked up at a garage sale somewhere that have never seen the water. Not sure how to use them. This helps. What does the sliding weight do to them? How far out are you fishing? Lake Erie can turn nasty on a dime. Lastly, using a 30ft Jet diver....how far back is your harness? Thanks.
@billfresh3776 yeah I have a couple yellow boards that I started with, needless to say I spent more time turning around to retrieve them because they come off easily. That's why I switched to the walleye board. The sliding keel weight on the bottom of the boards are to balance the board so it runs level and true in the water. Too much weight forward and the nose dives too deep, and likewise too much rear keel weight lifts the nose too high and they don't cut the water how they should and in turn won't get out to the side of the boat. When I use jet divers I am letting out 100' of line before I put the board on and typically I run another 100 out after putting my board on the line. Yeah Erie does get choppy fast because it is the shallowest of the great lakes. Lastly when I rig up my jet divers I use 30" of line behind the diver, and I make my harnesses with the same amount of line that gives me a 5' leader from the jet to the blade on my harness. Hope this helps and feel free to reply with any more questions you have. Tight lines and good luck👊
@@archerjay1 I use Off shore Tackle boards . Quick release in the front and I have a lock for the back. I take the screw out of the bottom and flip the weight 180 degrees , so it diggs harder . And a tattle flag ... Put my phone number on em because they cost a fortune 😄🎣✌️
