Stern planers vs Offshore tadpoles

[Sodbuster]

Stern planers are just a floating device to add rods to your set up. They were originally made for river anglers out in washington for trolling way behind the boat and to stay in line. As salmon spooked out from under boat they would come back to sweet spot as lure came along way behind the boat. Tad pole are a diving inline wieght. Much like stingrays or bottom bouncers with a steeper dive cure and wieght transfer to reduce pull when a fish strikes.

If adding lines out the rear corners I would lean towards the dipsy #1's they are adjustable to left and right out the sides the two you mentioned will only run straight out the back and may cause tangles in landing a fish caught off your boards.
