Rigging The G2 Planner

The G2 planer boards work well with just a tow line attached to your boat.
We will ship the boards with a 25' yellow polypropylene line rigged with a
coastlock snap and a loop so it is real easy to setup and be fishing in
short order. Another feature of the G2 planer board is that you can see the
release jigging back and forth on the surface so you get a real quick lesson
on how it works. We run them as close at 5' to as far as 35' from the boat.
One day we had a salmon jump right over our board. In all the years
developing the jiggers the planer board has always been an excellent
producer.

Re: Rigging The G2 Planner

After reading Fishlessman's post about hand lining these, I decided to try it this morning, instead of using my riggers. Was much easier to haul back in, and I tied a second loop about 2 feet from the board so I could quickly hang it up on the gunnel while attaching the line to the release. Work really slick, not need for me to have mast, reel setup. Thanks for an excellent product!

Re: Rigging The G2 Planner

I assume there is a power source. Does it run on batteries or something? Next, would you recommend the 'regular' or the 'quick jig' model in this area? Thank you!

Re: Rigging The G2 Planner

The most success that has been reported to us this year seems to be with the quick jig. The G2 has a prop on the front and when you pull it through the water while trolling the prop runs the jigging gears. No power required from a battery.
