I'm not looking to start a war, but rather seeking experienced opinions on both methods. I am fairly new to trolling lake Erie. The past 2 years I trolled 4-5 lines with Dipsy Divers. I am looking to gain more horizontal spread of my lures in order to run more lines. I realize I am going to have to switch to one of the two planer board methods to get the horizontal spread I am seeking.

Please provide some feedback on which system you prefer and why. If it helps, I will be pulling mostly cranks and spoons with my 30' Monterey.
