Planar Boards?

I figured one of you guys here may know, as they are really not used out West that much, the people that do use em are not from here.

I am looking into getting a set, or 2, just not sure which ones to get, or which to avoid.

I am using braid, if it matters.

thanks

I would look at the Church Tackle model TX22 or the Walleye board. The TX 22's are reversible so you can run them off either side or both off the same side. Some of the other manufactures only make models in left and right, I find the reversible ones much more adaptable to different fishing situations.

X2 when I started out with braid I soon switched to mono on my big rods it simplified the process for me what are u fishing for?

Fishing for walleye, usually only use boards when fishing large shallow flats (less than 6' deep) or fishing shallow mud lines in Sask or the southern reservoirs
