set up for inline planer boards

[Rev Doyle Israel]

I need help setting up our in line planner boards......We just do not know how to set them up for trolling for walleye......How do you set up the rod holders in the boat. We really just started fishing for walleye last year and really do not know what we are doing.......Any help would be greatly appreciated......

If you are running multiple boards off each side, you can go two ways(I'm sure theres more ways, but I've used these):

If all your rods are the same length, set your front rod holder(bow-most) straight up and down. Set your next holder back(towards stern) one position lower. Keep going one position lower as you go back. With the inlines, you probably don't want to run your lowest rod lower than a 45 degree angle. When I fished walleye alot, I had triple RAM mounts. They don't have "positions", but are infinitaly adjustable. You can vary each holder just a couple degrees. They just did not have the strength to hold salmon stuff(dipsies).

If you have different length rods and fixed position rod holders(assuming they are all the same angle), run your tallest rod furthest forward, and shortest rod stern-most. This makes re-deploying all but the back-most(inside) board kinda trickey though.

Thanks for your answers.........I am just learning and can use all the help I can get.......I did go out with someone last year, but the fishing captured my attention more than the doing.....
