I sometimes use Yellow Birds. They are quick to set up and use. But when you start using more weight or a deeper diving jet or dipsy they tend to run deeper in the water, further back and don't go out too far.

You guys really got me thinking about my big boards. Milt - I did google super Ski and found a few pictures. But I have to say that last year when we put a deep six diver out on the planer board line it did cause the board to go further back and a bow in the line. We were running another line off that side. I believe that it was a lead weight. You are probably are right Shorthanded the ones that you recommend probably would work out better. The Super Ski are double boards that fold up nice but they do not have a tapered / slanted front. That would probably let the Amish ones work better. How hard do they pull? Do the Amish ones come apart for storage? It's hard to see from the picture on the web site.

Regular Rubberbands work much better than any spring IMHO. 1lb of Rubberbands ( that is a giant bag) is less than $7 at staples and you can dial them in for each bait in seconds. Yes I break a few rubberbands each year, around 10, but not that many really, I give away more than I use. They are made a bit cheaper nowadays, but still. You can set them so even a small bunch of weeds or really small fish will pull the flag down. They adjust in seconds.
I can only hope I have earned the freedom that has been given me.
