Rick, try it without the rubber bands for awhile in the am. That is the reason I am not a confirmed user of them. What releases are you using? Before anyone else asks what was the colors of the Bandits you used?

BetweenShots,
I a.m. still getting used to replying on this site. I was using shower curtain hangers and just a rubber band. The rubber band never broke so we had tol manually replace them. Rickards told us the walleye were really only after the orange belly. So we bought everything with a orange belly.

We started jigging and my buddy caught one decent walleye. Then we moved locations and he caught one behind the boat moving position in the crowd. We then started to jig again for a while and nothing. Spent the next two hours trolling and adjusting the planer boards with very little success. We were watching boats around us catch good walleye jigging so we decided it was time to jig some more, when we started to retrieve our lines we had three walleye on. Glad that happened because the rest of the afternoon was a blast.
