You must upgrade to the snapper release clips on the boards first or you will be chasing boards all over the lake. You can pull jets behind the boards. I myself pull the 40's. It will take some getting used to the feel of a fish with a #40 behind it. The best way i like to fish with boards is with a crawler harness and just drift along with the 2 outside boards way out and 2 lines straight out the back. Those boards act like bobbers when you do this.
