The system you use to get your lure down has pros and cons.The problem we have using sinkers/weight is when you slow down with a turn or putting board back is weight will sink and could snag the bottom if rocky.Weights work good if water deep or muddy bottom.The Tru trips or jets float if you slow down so the will not snag a rocky bottom.The trouble with the planners is the release does not pull all the time and the deeper you need to go, the harder they pull.
