thank you wayne. i have alot to learn to do to be able to troll effectivley. i have planer boards that are store bought that do ok. i think i might make some up because if the rollers are over three feet i can't troll with them. the planer board line is not tight enough and with the big rollers the line gets alot of slack and then tightens again with the waves. so if i make some up and add weight i think that would help?

i have mainly fished bottom bouncers trolling and have done ok. alot of sheephead and white bass though.
