I run 2 Church Walleye boards in tandem on each side. The far board is out 100 feet. The inside board is out about 75-80 feet so they line up with the boat. As long as you run a straight course, even a white bass will pull the board back far enough that you can tell something isn't right so you can check that board for company. Yesterday a board dropped back about 4-5 feet and it turned out to be a 22 inch walleye.(table grade) You really have to pay attention. Hopefully I'll be out again tomorrow AM.

Only have one church board, thought would see if liked it before getting more, seems like have as much equipment now that I don't use as I have that I do use. Will give another go on calmer day to watch the board closer. Have you had any luck setting board up to release and run back to TT or Jet divers? Just wondering...thanks for quick response

Having the board release and slide back to the TT or JetDiver would defeat the smooth transition of bringing the fish to the net and increase your chances of loosing the fish. Fishing became expensive when that first fisherman put aside his cane pole in search of something better. I would strongly suggest you get another board to run side by side with the one you have. It will be well worth the investment and make life on the lake much easier for you and yours. I find staring at the boards can be hypnotizing and draw your attention away from the hazards of boat traffic so I try to find someone else to watch them for me. You won't believe how fast a fishing buddy will catch on and he or she will feel like they at contributing to the task at hand, especially when they get to yell, "Fish On!!!"

Nice to hear someone is catching fish. How deep was the water where you had luck and how long were you running the bombers? Colors? Deep or shallow divers? I assume you are referring to Long A's. The only presentation working for me are Contender spoons 50 plus feet back off 50TT. Watermelon with seeds caught a 29 inch Fish Ohio on Tuesday. Right now my boat is stick in wet grass and mud until I get help pulling it out.. The heavy rains have messed up more than the fishing.
