Most people don't change treble on spoons or put stingers on them.Think church are brand of inline boards.The trutrip 40 is used Alot by charters with the big boards.I have used them on my inline boards,but I feel they they pull too hard.I want my device that gets lure down to pull less than possible.I feel I can read the boards better that way.We use the #2 tadpole to depth of around 25 ft than if need to go deeper put on a 3oz sinker.Good luck.Takes years to be productive using new technipues.Thid forum speeds it up.
