PB-20 Double Planer Board

Unfortunately these boards are not satisfactory for pursuing Walleye on lake Erie. In super still water they are marginally ok but add a little wave action and they will collapse (fold up) and will not reset until you take off the lines (we use three) and pull the board in close to the boat to open it. The boards will sometimes flip over and run to the other side of the boat entangling the lines in an horrible bees nest. The cheap little plastic pins that hold them together are way to fragile. One was broke when we opened the box. They had to be replaced with stainless steel bolts.One of my fishing buddies has a set of PB-20s in his barn he would give away - he added lead weights to the bottoms and filled the cavities with expanding foam and they still don't work satisfactorily. He built his own and finds they work much better. I think that's where I'm headed.Incidentally I rarely make negative comments on a product but this one is so bad and so unnecessarily expensive I just can't hold my tongue.

Works very well! I've seen some reviews that say they flip over... Good grief! I fished on erie in close to 3 footers and NO PROBLEM. Any rougher than that I guess, I'd have to trust they flip cause I won't be out there!
