Location: oswego, il		Looks like a nice board, they definitely needed a bigger board. I really like how my TX 44 boards take my 10 color leadcore and 300 copper and get it well away from the boat. Looks like that was the intent of this board, would love to see it.

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin		Received the boards today, will be setting them up and getting them ready for some fishing next week. They are big. We'll post video of the boards pulling various sized muskie lures, and hopefully a few battles.

Truck yeah! Looks great. Like everything about the standard Offshore boards, except when pulling larger baits over 3mph, they don't pull out to the side much.. Sounds like this should take care of that problem.

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin		Need some time to produce it when we get through the content folks are waiting for, they were flawless pulling anything Muskie we tried. I don't have any 1# crankbaits, so couldn't test with ridiculously large lures.

We caught some big pike and 1 muskie trolling. Had little choice, the winds were ROCKING.

Sounds good. I'd like to see a comparison, side by side next to a standard size offshore board, just pulling rapala super shad raps or something similar.. From my experience the standard size boards start straightening out behind the boat when you get to about 3mph.. wondering if these boards stay out to the side at higher speeds. Could you PM me if you get a video up? Thanks Steve.

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin		That image was of a Super Cisco pulled at 3MPH. The rod? One of James from Tackle Industries rods for bass fishing, a Vexan heavy power bass rod. That stick doubles as a SUPERB crankbait trolling rod, believe it or not.
