[QUOTE="richg99, post: 467154, member: 4376"] Thursday has come and gone. My DIY planer board dragged a lot (as predicted here) and flopped over on her side much of the time. Obviously, I did something wrong with my build. What I did learn though, is that trolling is NOT for me. Wednesday I went with the muskie guide. We trolled about half of the time. Boring....(and no muskies, either). Then, on Thursday, I took my DIY board out on my local lake. Boring....and whether the board stayed upright or not, I am not going to be doing much trolling. Thanks for all of the assistance here. Oh, when I was faced with a choice of trolling or doing something about my casting technique (to help with the bad wrist), I modified my casting technique. I probably look like a doofus who never threw a lure before, but the lure/worm goes out and catches fish. I don't get near my former distance, but I get to go fishing. It is hard to un-learn 70+ years of casting, but I am doing it. regards, richg99 [/QUOTE]
