Planer Board Line?

[wakina]

Thanks Wakina! I've already got the snubbers in the cart. I've been trying to figure out if the Amish Outfitters line was a must, but from what I've been able to find online, it's more than worth the extra cost due to not needing to change it very often.

Is 200' enough? I'm installing electric reels, so if the only benefit of going to 300' of line is saving your shoulders, I may put that extra money towards 2 dozen more clips.

200 ft on each side will give you a spread of 300 to 350 feet and still leave a few raps of line on the reels so the towing pressure is not put directly on the attachment points. For me that would be way more than enough, but that is only my opinion and what my maximum distance from the boat would be. My friends also use a wrap or 2 of electrical tape on the empty reel spool it will help with the line slippage super braid is noted for giving it something to bite into giving it a grip on the reel spool.

Some guys use different colored sharpies to mark the line at 50(?) foot intervals so they know approximately how much line is out and how much is still left on the reels. The different colors lets you know with just a glance where you are at in amount of line out and amount left on the reel.
