*These are easy to use and highly visible **enjoyable.fishing** recommend they are extremely valuable for going from a dead drift set up to a float setup. They save time and you don't have to re-tie everything to add a float to your presentation.*
You’re videos have changed my fishing thanks for all
Hey thanks, very helpful. At 63 I am just rigging my boat for catfish and striper and using planer boards for the first time. New sub.
Will order !!! Greatly appreciate you sharing your knowledge
😁😁👍👍
You. Are. The. Man. Great Presentation of knowledge. Helping others learn great techniques is awesome.
RediRig Tackle Thanks brother!! LOVE REDIRIG!!
It's assuring and refreshing listening to a Fisherman that has a wealth of knowledge. As I've spent thousands of hours fishing for striper, all bass, catfish, the old fashioned way with frozen anchovies, etc and sometimes not catching anything. Was raised fishing this way. I then started using lures, better baits and getting into bigger fish. I wish I had this video 40 yrs. ago! I grew up and fished the California Delta area, San Francisco Bay. Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge and this video!! I'll pass it along.
Mark P. Thank you so much brother!! I REALLY do appreciate the time you took for this comment!! Please definitely spread the word!! More good stuff coming!
Great information as usual Mike!
Thanks Terry!! Appreciate it brother!
You the man mike. Recently found you. Love it!
Thanks brother!!! 👍👍😁😁
Thank you so much for reviewing how and when to use planer boards. I live near Lake Lanier and it has taken me a lot of time to learn all of the various techniques. Your videos have been very helpful!
Russell Hyllested glad you liked it! Thanks brother
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS I've been thinking about trying striper fishing. Do I really need that board on my line to fish striper? 🤔
Awesome video u have help many people yet again
Thanks Nick! I appreciate the comment and your continued support brother!! 👍
Great video buddy thanks for sharing your help and advice to us all merry Christmas to you and your family
Thanks Tim! Same to you brother!! Merry Christmas!
Great explanation. Thanks Mike.
Thanks brother!
HEY.... U 100.. MOST GUYS WANT GIVE INFO !!! THANKS 4 ALL THE TIPS
great info. Thanks. cant wait to try this method
Thanks brother!!
Great video, down to earth Mike, thanks for keeping it real!
Thank you sir!! Very kind of you to say 👍👍
Good stuff Mike!
Thanks Brother!!👍👍
Thank you for your help.
🙏🙏😁
Those TOS floats are great. Been using them since last winter. 👍
That’s awesome brother! Glad you dig them.
Thank you for all the amazing videos. Just getting back into fishing - to spend more bonding time with my boys. Ur videos have been a huge help. Thank you.
I’m glad you like them! That is EXACTLY why I share as much info as possible. Fishing is a great way for families to bond and be together, it was very important for me as kid and later as a father. 👍👍😁😁
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS please if you ever want to visit Long Island and go to the Hamptons during the fall run - let me know. I can send you link to my beach rental property’s. They are on the water in Hampton bays. I’ll let you stay there and i get to go fishing with you lol I just picked up a 21’ Grady. So I have a lot to learn. In the mean time I’ll keep watching the videos. Thanks again
Nice set-up and good audio. Good lighting. Planning to binge watch some shows tonight. Interesting wire extension on the clip. Lots of good info!!
Thanks Dieter!! I appreciate that brother!! 😁😁
Dieter Melhorn Fishing Hey brother, I just watched a few of your videos, REALLY cool stuff. 👍👍
Mike you're an encyclopedia thanks!
Thanks brother. You’re too kind. 👍😁
Nice job bro thank you so much!!!!
Epifanio Cisneros glad you like it brother. 👍👍
Uhhh, looks like someone is an absolute pro! Haha, great video bro, thank you!
Thanks brother 👍👍😁
Love the content Mike. I might have to pick up a pair of those TOS rigs so I can drag some more shad off the back of the boat. Need as many rods out as I can get while the winter bite is still in full swing here on Beaver Lake.
Yeah man!! I really love them. They seem to always out fish the boards even though they are outnumbered!
TOS Floats work super good for longlining jigs for crappie as well. I haven't seen anyone else using them for that, but they are perfect.
OH YEAH!! Love it!! Thanks brother
Awesome vid. Gonna give it a try this weekend
+Zach Walls Thanks brother!!! Go for it!!! Let me know how you do!!
It will be my first time trying an I'm only running a gas moter. So well so what happens. It's one of Kentucky's largest lakes lakes Cumberland.
i love you great tips
Love you too brother! 😁😁🙏🙏
I live at the NC coast, I have some cool fishing trips here but some of the most exciting over the years has been fresh water striper fishing pulling a spread with side planers, ready rig floats, free lines and down lines. I have several Outback planer boards, just switched my releases to the Scottie, looking forward to using them.
NICE!! It’s a fun way to fish for sure brother!
I love your videos.
I mainly hybrid striper fish but also fish striper in lake Cumberland and TN river.
My biggest struggle is knowing what speed to pull when, and what depth my baits are running.
Could you do a more in-depth video on speeds you pull when, what size baits you use when, how much line you let out with what weight to run what depth.
Thanks for the info buddy it takes people years to learn and here you give info with no problem 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
I appreciate that brother!! 99% of what’s great about fishing is the people we meet along the way. 👍👍👍😁😁
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS - hey Mike, we tried out the Zakk Royce boards this weekend. I already have 50lb braid on the rods from our last Old Drum trip at the coast, and planning on using 30lb fluoro for the 5 ft leaders from the swivel down, but the clips on the boards don't seem to hold this braided line, just slides down. Even with the TOS twist and placing behind the pin ( I honestly don't understand the pin part with the twist, won't that freeze it in place when it tightens on the pin?). Only had little A rigs behind them, no weight.
Any tips for using with braid?
Will I need to respool all the rods with mono for the clips to work?
Headed to SML this Sunday 11th, any tips would be appreciated!
There’s a black clip on the release that sets the tension stronger on the clips. Yes the pin keeps the clip from releasing so you manually remove it.
You really should switch to mono for bait fishing. You will hook a lot less fish with braid because the fish will feel the rod tip and drop the bait. It’s important for the fish to feel no resistance so it holds the bait long enough to get hooked. Braid has no stretch so the fish feels to tip and drops the bait a lot faster.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thanks, probably why one board was surging back and forth also, no stretch. So when you loop around the pin, it is supposed to lock it in place, gotcha there too.
Looking at the clip online, I don't see the black tensioner clip. I see the black part in the middle but it's not evident what to do to make any adjustment? Thanks for helping a noob understand it, hopefully it helps others with same questions.
bottomdwellerstackle.com/product/zakk-royces-planer-boards/
Guess I will try to unspool my newish braid back to the holder and replace with mono this week!
I found what I was not getting. The spring inside can slide forward or back to increase or decrease the tension, didn't realize that. Ok, still changing to 30lb mono with 30lb flouro leaders and we should be ready for SML. Hopefully we can find the shad in the backs of shallow flats next week. We have some A rigs and 6" Money Minnows and similar if not. Good camping weather!
The best of all the demonstrations didn’t leave anything out
Thanks brother!
Love watching these videos and seeing how stripers behave... what is the purpose of the planer? And why am I not hooking up from the shore? I'm using an sp minnow and a teaser about a foot up my rig
Awesome videos Thanks. You have helped me a ton (and i appreciate it). Question what does the wire extension to the clip do? My Royce boards have the clip attached with a split ring.
Thanks brother!! It’s just a tweak I use to eliminate the big split ring from getting caught all jammed up laying against the post. The large split ring can be bad news if you fish a lot. Sooner or later your gonna pull the board up and in toward the boat to keep from hitting a tree or some other obstruction and the line will get caught in the split ring. It’s definitely not a big time epidemic or anything, but I prefer to use a loop made of wire. 120lb stainless wire. 👍👍
Who the hell would click the thumbs down for that😳 the guy just GAVE YOU more information about how to catch any kind of fish IN ANY WATER then you could learn in 50 years!! GREAT VIDEO🇺🇸
THOSE PLANER BOARDS WILL BE FISHING FOR MY 😍WALLEYE😍 in The CONNECTICUT RIVER❤️❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
THANKS MIKE🇺🇸
Wow! Thank you Pete!! That’s what Im talkin bout! Seriously, I appreciate it brother. 😁👍👍👍👍
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS If you were closer to winter I mean New Hampshire we go fishin a bit❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸
@@theusconstitution1776 Ha! Well I do travel the East coast Striper fishing. From Georgia to Gloucester brother!! Fresh and salt.
Great video help me a lot
How or where can I get one of those planer boards?
amzn.to/36yueU4. Clear version
As usually, you put out a great informative video for us newbies wanting to get into planar boards and floats. I really enjoy all your videos, everything from cheap boat alarms and systems to things like this one, how to catch big stripes. I have only one question, you said no weights on the shallow shore side of the boat, so to reach that 30 foot depth on the other channel side you only use 1/4 to 1/2 oz weight to get your bait down to the fish? i am sure you probably have a video on that with more detail but I can't remember if you did. Keep up the great and informative videos. I am a big fan. tight lines brother.
Thanks for the kind words brother!! I appreciate it!! I still stay very light on the weight over deep water. I may add a 3/8 oz split shot, but not always. I’ll usually just put more line out behind the board so the bait can swim down. The weight of the hook is usually enough to force the bait down in a more natural fashion.
Thanks for watching!!
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS Ok, I got ya. thanks for the reply.
I really enjoy your videos. I learn a lot, because you take the time to explain things. I live in the Annapolis, MD area and fish the Chesapeake Bay. My question is can I use a artificial bait on a planer board for shallow water like 10' to 15' using something like a 9" Slug Go instead of live bait ?
Absolutely and thanks for the kind words!! Lots of guys pull Alabama rigs on them too.
Great video.
I mainly fish Tahoe, and am just learning about planers. I have been thinking about attaching the planers with a seperate hand line to the boat, and just attach the fishing line to the back of the planer. Have you ever tried this?
I personally have not, but lots of guys have. They use a spin caster reel attached to the boat rail with a snap swivel at the end of the line. The reel can release and wind the board in.
Geat video mike,what size zack royce,planers do i need fishing rivers and lakes here at worrior river ,logan martin lake and coosa river ,all fresh water in alabama, pulling 2 boards ,also where is the best place to order them, please respond thanks mike.
Another great video, as per usual I learned a lot. One question, why do you use an offset circle hook with planer boards?
I use an offset because I can get away with it while moving slowly. When sitting still the line is slack, so the fish can swallow the bait. An offset hook won’t slide out of the stomach as easily so you gut hook more fish.
IV just made my planer boards, I could use some good info on the best release clips to use
Definitely these. amzn.to/38BXBU9
I think I found my answer in another of your videos...Shad and herring can live in salt or fresh water, salt helps them live in captivity...thanks for all the helpful info!
Yes sir!! Definitely important when loading a bait tank, second only to temp.
Great concept having the front of the board curved and not square. Let’s the leaves and pine straws slide right off. Time to change boards. Love the video but man you cost me sum money today. Haha
Thinking about trying planer boards for the first time, and throwing net from boat for baitfish, a previous video you demonstrated using ice and SALT in live well, I would like to try it, what purpose does salt serve?
It basically improves their body function, helps them get oxygen from the water easier as well. Be careful, too much will dehydrate them.
Thanks for all the info! Couldn’t find a link to Scotty brand releases...do they supply the line (cable) from board to the release also?
I’ll see if I can find one, I made the cable, it’s funny how many people asked about that cable 😉😁
Here ya go brother!!
amzn.to/38BXBU9
Thanks! I have been looking at some planer boards and release mechanisms, however, the whole tactic seemed so complicated, but thanks to your videos...I think I can pull-this-off! Thanks again!
kytrails HECK YEAH! That’s what I love to hear! Check out the last few videos I posted on the Chesapeake and Smith Mountain. They have some good Planer board info. Thanks!!
Hi Mike, I noticed you added a short length of cable? from the planer board arm to your release. What is the benefit of adding that?
The original large split ring binds up sometimes any the wire loop I added fixes that
Great video man getting ready to order some of the planer floats. Do you need different ones for each side of the boat or are they interchangeable?
Thanks. They are interchangeable, just move the arm to the side you want. 👍
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS do the planer floats have arms
@@subasurfcasters nope. They come in a pair and have permanent fins that can’t be changed.
@Mike Smedley can the planer floats be used on either side or is one for the left and one for the right
@@subasurfcasters one for each side. They are not interchangeable.
When you are pulling planer boards what speed do you like to go if there’s not any current
From a crawl to 2.5 mph usually.
We're do u get planner board for stripers
The planer boards look different on Amazon now -- white foam. Did you just paint them yellow? Also some reviewers are saying they are more cheaply made now and falling apart. Do you still use these? Thanks
You’re right. Those are different boards than the video, but boards I have used and really like. The guy that makes them is a stand up guy so I wouldn’t worry about quality. If you want the exact boards from the video you can get them at the bottom dwellers website. Sorry I don’t have a link.
Can you use them with Mojo Rigs and a Spoon Combo? Or is that rig set up to heavy? Thanks
Too heavy for this style board, but lots of Chesapeake trollers use long line planers and clip numerous mojo combos. The boards are 4’ long.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS I was going to ask the same question. Thanks Mike. Love the videos. Newbie here and have been watching your videos. Thank you sharing your knowledge.
You're saying to go with the current (Current + 1mph = desired boat speed), is there a limit to the current speed or boat speed you pull them in and change techniques?
We usually start at a medium speed, around 1 mph faster than the current and then adjust from there. Sometimes we crawl down to just .2 over the current and sometimes crank it up to 2mph over. Since we use little weight the boat speed moves the bait up and down the water column. That first fish is the trickiest, once you find what works I’m am quick to duplicate it. Never fight the current though, I cross it sometimes if I have to, but never fight it. This was just earlier this month. I talk a bit about current here thanks for the comment brother!!th-cam.com/video/mBu_K0hoQ-w/w-d-xo.html
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS Thanks Mike, I was wondering if you ever use this in a 2-2.5 mph current, or is this just in areas that max current is under 2. I am just picturing that eel flying by a staged up bass behind a rock at 4mph, and it watching it go by
Jeff Brinkman This is definitely not the best way to target Bass staged on isolated structure necessarily. (Like a small rock pile) It’s best to pull along structural lines (long points covered in rocks) and in open water. In open water, when the current is running 2 mph the bass are moving with it looking for bait also moving with it and using it, so pulling eels at 3mph only looks like 1mph to the Stripers. It’s incredible how these fish use currents. They know exactly where to be. The tides will carry them in and out with schools of bait, they are very strong. I want my baits to look like they are rolling with the tides. 👍. Great question brother!
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS Awesome, thanks for your advice! Love your videos and keep em coming. I'd be interested in a video on how you analyze charts prior to going out to a new area, and generating a plan. Merry X-mas to all the Old School Boyz!
Jeff Brinkman GREAT IDEA! Same to you brother!! Merry Christmas!
Could you be able to catch striped bass on a jetty by throwing soft plastic bait or even real bait because here in Oregon we do have striped bass come into the Bays and they mostly come in March and April and November and October when they come back in again they spawn in the spring then they had back out could you be able to catch stripe at Bass on a Jenny by throwing soft pasta bait or even real bait because here and organ we do have striped bass come into the base and they mostly come in March and April and November and October when they come back in again they spawn in the spring then they had back out into the Bay and the ocean
Absolutely! Let the current take them right out!
Hey Mike what kind of mono do you use
I really love Berkeley Pro Spec reg. Not chrome.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thanks mike
Can you use braided line as main line?
You can, but I wouldn’t. The fish feels the the rod in the rod holder because there is no stretch. You don’t want the fish to feel anything before it can get the circle hook swallowed. You will get lots of dropped fish before they can get hooked.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thank u.. got some planner boards ordered going to give this a try.. I usually use live eels should be fun.. God bless
@@jstorres486 oh yeah. Eels and boards is deadly
Correction zakk is the right spelling for mr.royce,1st name. Sorry,
I've seen planer boards big enough to resemble furniture.
Ha!! You’re right.
